founding

After the attacks on asylum seekers' homes in Mölln and Hoyerswerda , Ursula Kinkel, the wife of the former Federal Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel , launched Aktion Cura in 1993 . In 2004, Aktion Cura became the Cura victim fund and was run by the Amadeu Antonio Foundation, which has been in charge of it since then.

Victims of right-wing extremist violence are often left alone with the consequences of acts of violence. In addition to physical and mental injuries, these are also burdened financially (e.g. legal fees and property damage). The organization offers direct, quick and unbureaucratic financial help. The fund also finances measures that enable the victims to return to everyday life. At the same time, the victim fund works closely with local victim support in advising those affected.

Funding statistics

In the past ten years, the CURA Victims Fund has supported more than 142 victims of right-wing violence with a total of 112,252 euros. The need for support has been increasing for years; in 2014 alone, 25 people were helped with EUR 26,372.33.
