Stiftung Familienglück focuses on practical, highly visible support for families and especially for vulnerable or often overlooked groups in Germany, with a strong emphasis on children, mothers in women’s shelters, and sibling children. Its work blends direct aid, event-based giving, and partnerships with local businesses and nonprofits, often tied to festive or child-centered experiences rather than large institutional grants. The foundation also shows interest in community, culture, and selected social-good activities such as arts, senior support, and animal welfare, but its clearest pattern is hands-on, local, family-oriented assistance.
Primarily direct, project-based, and in-kind or small-scale financial support; includes annual seasonal gift-giving for women’s shelters, event sponsorships, and donations routed through online platforms. Support appears to be recurring but program-specific, with a yearly application deadline for the shelter initiative and likely partner-driven, invitation-based collaboration for other projects.

For the annual 'Wunschglück in Frauenhäusern' program, participating women’s shelters should submit the registration form by 30.11. each year. For other support, the foundation appears open to partnerships and project collaboration rather than a formal open grant process, so applicants should contact Markus Heimer directly and propose concrete, family-centered or child-focused projects in Germany.
