Infraserv Höchst operates its own donation program in order to encourage civic engagement and to bolster education, culture and integration projects. The funds mainly target the neighborhoods and communities surrounding Industriepark Höchst. This year, the focus is on Höchst and Unterliederbach.
The first round of donations is complete. At the donation check presentation ceremony held at the Jahrhunderthalle convention center on May 30, Wolfhart Burdenski, the Head of Human Resources at Infraserv Höchst, praised the extensive participation in the donation program: “This year’s applications were fascinating. I’m thrilled that we’re able to support so many interesting, meaningful projects – including a painting course featuring the local community, planned language classes for refugees and support programs for the siblings of disabled children.” Burdenski presented EUR 37,850 in donation checks to 39 institutions and initiatives.
Projects about culture, education and Integration
Infraserv Höchst’s donation program focuses on supporting cultural projects, improving education in schools through new technologies and promoting social integration, particularly for teenagers and senior citizens. Donations are intended as start-up financing for new projects. Once launched, the projects will ideally sustain themselves for a long time to come. The gifts are concentrated among the communities that surround Industriepark Höchst. Each year, EUR 75,000 is given to projects and initiatives in two to three districts in western Frankfurt or the city of Kelsterbach. The districts rotate in a four-year cycle. Clubs, schools, preschools and initiatives in Höchst and Unterliederbach can still apply in 2017.
Donations are distributed in two rounds of funding per year. An independent advisory board selects projects and initiatives to fund and decides how much funding to provide. In 2017, the advisory board consists of: Christoph Brum and Hubert Schmitt, who chair the umbrella associations for clubs in Höchst and Unterliederbach; Holger Vonhof from Höchster Kreisblatt, a local newspaper; and Kirsten Mayer and Wolfhart Burdenski from Infraserv Höchst.
Second round for 2017: applications accepted until August 4
Höchst and Unterliederbach will continue to receive donations in 2017. Clubs, schools, preschools and initiatives from these districts can submit their applications for the second round of donations until Friday, August 4, 2017, preferably online at www.ihr-nachbar.de/spendenformular (in German only) or in writing.
Applications should contain a project description, the applicant's contact address, a requested funding amount, a breakdown of how the funds will be used, and a guarantee that the project will benefit the public. Ongoing expenses such as rent or salaries are not eligible for funding.
In 2018, the Infraserv donation program will depart from its usual four-year cycle and turn to Nied and Sossenheim. These two districts will be celebrating their 800th anniversary next year and are to be given the opportunity to request funding for their octocentennial celebrations. In 2019, funds will once again be distributed among projects in Sindlingen, Zeilsheim and Kelsterbach.
