Summary
According to the calculations, of the 6- to under 15-year-olds, only about 18 percent take the benefit, the 15- to under 18-year-olds, it is only 12 percent. More than eight out of ten beneficiaries do not receive the monthly amount of 15 euros for social and cultural participation, according to a statement from the Stiftung aus Gütersloh. Children and adolescents whose parents receive basic security have been entitled to financial support for 15 years for participation in sports and culture or for support at school.
Furthermore, The then federal government of the CDU/CSU and FDP had introduced the so-called education and participation package in 2011 to cover the financial education and participation needs of children and adolescents. This includes, among other things, participation in excursions at school and in daycare centers, student transport, joint lunches, learning promotion, club sports, music lessons or holidays. Only 37 percent use the common lunch.
In addition, In Schleswig-Holstein, 59 percent of the entitled persons make use of the benefits, in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern 38 percent. Rather, the amount is small and the way there is very expensive, emphasizes Antje Funcke, expert of the Foundation for Family Policy.
