"For us, it's about associations that make a contribution to the people in our region with their social commitment." In particular, Raiffeisenbank is calling on those sports communities to participate from which they have not yet received an application in recent years. "There's no such thing as too small," Kleinjung clarifies. New initiatives, creative ideas or voluntary commitment by individuals are also eligible for the competition.
