Every year, millions to billions of euros in grant funds go unclaimed in Germany because clubs and small organizations often lack the capacity and know-how to navigate the complex and bureaucratic application processes. These funds, provided by government bodies, foundations, and other institutions, are intended to support important projects and initiatives that could not be realized without financial aid. However, many potential applicants fail to access these funds.

Estimates suggest that around 1.5 billion euros in grants go unclaimed annually in Germany. This figure highlights the immense potential lost due to high bureaucratic hurdles. Small organizations and clubs, often run by volunteers, typically lack the time and resources to deal with the often complicated and time-consuming application processes.

The problem is exacerbated by the fact that funding programs and their requirements vary greatly and can change regularly. Without specialized knowledge and experience, it is nearly impossible for many organizations to keep track and find the right programs that match their projects.

Fördereasy addresses this problem with a platform that provides a comprehensive overview of available funding programs and includes an application assistant. This assistant guides the applicant through an easy-to-understand process, clearly explaining the necessary steps and requirements. This significantly simplifies and makes the application process more accessible.

Our platform offers a user-friendly interface that allows users to quickly and easily find the right funding programs. The integrated application assistant helps systematically gather and prepare the required information and documents. This reduces errors and increases the likelihood that applications will be successfully approved.

The high number of unclaimed grants demonstrates a pressing need for support and simplification. With Fördereasy, we can help more organizations access the financial resources they need to implement their valuable projects. This not only better utilizes the potential of grant funds but also strengthens the work of many dedicated clubs and initiatives.
