The Bundesverband der Fördervereine e. V. ( BFD ) is an umbrella organization founded in 1999 for development associations in Germany. The BFD is a non-profit , registered association based in Essen , North Rhine-Westphalia . The association represents the interests of over 3000 (not exclusively) school development associations and thus around 15% of the corresponding German associations in total.

history

After the first association was founded in North Rhine-Westphalia in 1991 with the State Association of Schools Support Associations NRW (LSF), support associations based in other federal states also intended to join this association in the following years. As a result, on the initiative of the LSF in 1999, the federal association was founded with identical services to support development associations outside of North Rhine-Westphalia.

This close relationship is still evident today. Both associations use a visually identical website, share an Internet forum and an office. The majority of the board members in both associations also form a personal union . The BDF does not accept any members from North Rhine-Westphalia and refers them to the LSF.

tasks

The BFD claims to represent the interests of the school development associations as a whole at the federal level and supports its member associations in their administrative work.

mandate

The association is authorized by its members to:

  • Support of all non-profit development associations in Germany, insofar as their purpose is to promote schools, day-care centers, educational and youth work or cultural work, as well as all regional associations of the aforementioned development associations through advice, non-material and financial support.
  • Support for schools in need, especially in Africa, Asia and Latin America, through non-material and financial support.
  • Fund raising and transferring to another tax-privileged corporation , in particular to tax-privileged foundations set up by the BFD , insofar as their purpose is covered by the purpose of the association.

activity

In 2017, the BFD provided a funding pot of over 30,000 euros for the projects of the member associations for the first time. The BFD is also a voting member of the federal network for civic engagement .
