We are looking for creative ideas that strengthen togetherness in the region. The projects that can be funded by “We’re tackling it!” are diverse: from purchasing new play equipment, to providing new sets of jerseys for local sports clubs, to equipping the village youth club, to financing new instruments for music groups – the initiative calls on clubs to submit their most creative and innovative project ideas.
Making the commitment of clubs in Northern Saxony visible
Clubs are much more than just a leisure activity in North Saxony. They form the backbone of our society and take on important tasks in the areas of social affairs, culture, sport and education. That is why Sparkasse Leipzig and the three local newspapers want to promote commitment – and make it known to a wider public.
