Schulte-Schmelter Stiftung: An Initiative for Children in Need

The Schulte-Schmelter Stiftung, founded in 2008, is a non-profit organization based in Cologne. It was established by Hubert Schulte-Schmelter to provide sustainable support to children and adolescents who are in need due to serious traumatic experiences.

Main Mission and Values

edit

The foundation focuses on providing residential youth assistance in family-like and family-oriented living groups. This environment allows young people to develop in a protected setting and shape their future. The foundation's mission is based on the desire to help children and adolescents permanently and sustainably, regardless of gender, nationality, or cultural background.

Services and Offers

edit

Living Groups: The foundation currently operates two residential living groups with 7 places each, as well as four socio-educational living communities with 1 to 3 places. These facilities provide young people with a family-like environment where they can live and be supported by professional staff.
Cordenhof in Erftstadt-Erp: The foundation has acquired the Cordenhof, a listed estate, where further care services are to be developed in the future.

Sustainability Goals and Initiatives

edit

The foundation is committed to long-term and sustainable support for young people. Through close cooperation with youth welfare offices and the creation of safe living spaces, the foundation aims to ensure that children and adolescents receive the necessary help and support to shape their future independently. The financing of the services is secured through donations and support from sponsors, as public budgets are often limited.

The Schulte-Schmelter Stiftung pursues an innovative approach in child and youth welfare by turning away from large institutionalized forms and instead focusing on personal, family-oriented care. This approach allows young people to grow and develop in a supportive environment.
