Bernburg. A new impetus for childcare centres in the Salzlandkreis! Saxony-Anhalt is making over 3.1 million euros available for planned modernisation and refurbishment. Operators of childcare centres or childminding services can now submit their funding applications.
The Salzlandkreis Youth and Family Service collects these reports until the end of October, on the basis of a relevant administrative agreement with the relevant Ministry of Social Affairs. This procedure is designed to assess the scope for investment and thus ensure better planning. The funding comes from the federal special fund ‘Infrastructure and Climate Neutrality’.
