Regine Sixt Kinderhilfe Stiftung focuses on improving the lives of children worldwide through practical, on-the-ground projects in education, health, welfare, and emergency relief. Its grantees are typically orphanages, schools, hospitals, shelters, and child-serving nonprofits that need concrete support such as furnishings, dormitories, therapy rooms, water access, or emergency recovery aid. The foundation stands out for funding highly tangible, child-centered projects that combine immediate relief with long-term well-being and development.

Submit a detailed project request through their project-funding process with a clear child-centered need, budget, implementation plan, and measurable outcomes.
