Stiftung Rudolph von der Tinnen focuses on direct relief for people in acute financial hardship, especially those described as "verschämte Arme"—individuals who are reluctant to ask for help. Its core activity is one-time, case-by-case assistance to ease immediate emergencies for families, single parents, widows/widowers, and people facing illness or other crises. The foundation is locally rooted in Münster and has historical Christian origins, though the current program description centers on need-based emergency support rather than broader institutional grantmaking.
Small, one-time hardship grants awarded on an individual basis to relieve acute need; appears locally administered and tailored to the specific emergency rather than through a competitive public grant cycle.
Applicants should expect a direct, case-based process rather than an open grant program. Reach out to the foundation office and be prepared to document the emergency, household situation, and financial need; local ties to Münster and a clear explanation of why immediate help is needed will likely strengthen the request.
