About Stiftung Gewässerschutzfonds

Stiftung Gewässerschutzfonds appears to be a regional fisheries and aquatic habitat fund focused on protecting endangered fish species and improving river/lake ecosystems in Lower Bavaria (Niederbayern). Its support is practical and conservation-oriented, combining species restocking and population recovery with habitat improvements, youth work, equipment purchases, and other measures that strengthen local fishing associations. The fund also seems to back monitoring and demonstration projects tied to habitat restoration, such as adding deadwood and root structures to water bodies.

Giving Approach

Regional, program-based grantmaking with at least one annual application deadline (typically by September 30 for general measures) and a separate program cycle for species conservation. Funding is tied to specific eligible activities and appears to reimburse or subsidize project costs rather than provide open-ended support; some programs have set cost-sharing rates (e.g., up to 75% for selected measures).
