With a bequest or donation to the Deutsche Cleft Kinderhilfe Foundation you make a vital contribution to the continuation and expansion of our aid effort worldwide – an investment that bears fruit for an entire lifetime and beyond.

Deutsche Cleft Kinderhilfe Foundation

Help and heal in the long term – that is the motto of the foundation that supports our projects. It was initiated by our former board member Dr. Dr. med. Heinz Lübbe.

Cleft children with a particularly severe malformation need special treatment. Often several complex operations and follow-up therapies are necessary. Our well-endowed foundation provides a secure basis for such long-term projects.

Become a permanent part of our effort

With a donation to the Deutsche Cleft Kinderhilfe Foundation you increase the capital stock, from whose returns we can fund permanent projects. The minimum donation amount is 1,000 euros. Securities, real estate, or property such as collections can also be donated. The foundation is recognized as a non-profit and charitable organization, so that you benefit from the maximum possible tax savings, with a deduction option of up to 20 percent of the total amount of income.

Your donation, like all other capital of the foundation, is invested conservatively through the Haus des Stiftens, a Munich-based nonprofit financial services provider for charitable foundations, and becomes a permanent part of the foundation’s capital. Only the annual returns are used for aid projects, in accordance with the articles of association.

Become part of the foundation’s community of supporters with your donation. Invest in sustainable aid for children.

By including Deutsche Cleft Kinderhilfe in your will you give hope and life beyond your own life. As a non-profit organization, Deutsche Cleft Kinderhilfe is exempt from inheritance tax. With a donation, you can give children with cleft lip and palate, who would have little chance in life without our help, a better future.
