Stiftung EmMi LuebesKind gGmbH focuses on improving the life chances of children, adolescents, and young adults who cannot live with their birth parents, with a strong emphasis on foster care, residential care, and the transition to independent adulthood. It combines operational programs with grantmaking, often backing organizations, research partners, and collaborative initiatives that strengthen the ecosystem around care leavers and foster families. The foundation also supports cultural and sports participation for young people in care settings, plus policy-relevant research and advocacy connected to child and youth care.
Primarily project-based support through formal applications, with some invite-only or partnership-driven collaborations. It funds organizations rather than individuals, mixes direct grants with operational initiatives, and often co-funds projects with partner foundations or institutions; support ranges from research funding to program support and in-kind/experience-based opportunities.

Organizations should apply through the foundation’s project-specific application processes; the foundation explicitly does not fund individuals. Proposals are strongest when they clearly serve children and young adults outside their birth families, include a practical implementation plan, and show either partnership value, evidence-building, or direct benefit to foster/residential care populations in Germany.
