About Market of Funding Opportunities

The Market of Funding Opportunities is a proven information platform of the Wolfenbüttel district, bringing together clubs, initiatives, associations, and volunteers with funding programs and donors. For the fourth time, the market will open its doors on May 6, 2026, at the Till Eulenspiegel Museum in Schöppenstedt for a compact evening full of advice, networking, and concrete application guidance. Representatives from foundations, banks, state programs, EU initiatives, and the district administration will present their funding schemes at individual stands and be available for individual questions. The market is an important instrument for connecting club work, social projects, and cultural initiatives with the appropriate funding sources.

Making Funding Visible

Many club chairpersons, initiatives, and volunteers are unaware of which funding programs are suitable for their project ideas. The Market of Funding Opportunities addresses exactly this: At a central location, applicants meet donors, receive advice, network with other stakeholders, and get concrete tips on which programs match their project idea.

Program and Format

The format is deliberately designed to be accessible: Instead of a traditional lecture event, the market presents itself as a stand-to-stand exhibition where visitors can gather information at their own pace. Representatives from the following areas are regularly present: Foundations with regional ties, municipal funding programs of the Wolfenbüttel district, state programs of Lower Saxony, federal programs, EU funding schemes such as ERDF or LEADER, community foundations, and savings bank foundations. Personal consultations are available without prior registration.

Venue: Till Eulenspiegel Museum

The Till Eulenspiegel Museum in Schöppenstedt offers a special atmosphere as a meeting place. The museum, dedicated to the birthplace of the legendary jester, is located in a historic building on Nordstraße. The premises allow for both focused consultation and informal exchange in a relaxed setting.

Market of Funding Opportunities — edition 2026

The 4th Market of Funding Opportunities will take place on Wednesday, May 6, 2026, from 5 PM to 8 PM at the Till Eulenspiegel Museum Schöppenstedt. Representatives from foundations, municipal, state, federal, and EU funding programs will present their application possibilities and advise clubs, initiatives, and volunteers individually. The organizer is the Wolfenbüttel district. Admission is free, and prior registration is not required.

4th Edition on May 6, 2026

After three successful previous editions, the Wolfenbüttel district is continuing the series. The format has proven itself: a compact evening, high density of advice, low threshold. Several dozen exhibitors are available for individual discussions. Those facing a financing question in their club work can gather relevant information quickly and concisely on May 6.
