ICP Munich Foundation

What ICP Munich Foundation does

Stiftung ICP München is a Munich-based nonprofit foundation (Stiftung) established in 1956 as the Spastiker-Zentrum and later rebranded to its current name, reflecting an expanded interdisciplinary mandate. The foundation provides comprehensive medical, therapeutic, educational, vocational, residential, and senior-care services for people with physical disabilities — primarily cerebral palsy and other physical-motor impairments — across all life phases, from early childhood through old age. It serves approximately 450 children and youth at its main Garmischer Straße location and operates additional adult services through two wholly-owned subsidiaries.

The organization is structured across three entities: the main Stiftung ICP München (children and youth services), MFZ Münchner Förderzentrum GmbH (adult residential homes, Förderstätte day facilities, and the WfbM sheltered workshop in Giesing and Freimann), and IKF Integrative Kinderförderung GmbH (inclusive childcare, kindergarten, and inclusive elementary school). Service modules include specialist medical supervision, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, the MZEB medical center for adults with disabilities, postoperative rehabilitation, the Luise-Kiesselbach Förderschule and Berufsschule, the Heilpädagogische Tagesstätte, the Berufsbildungswerk vocational training center, supported independent living, and specialized senior care. The foundation also runs its own Fachschule für Heilerziehungspflege, with a new structured training cohort launching in 2026/2027, and a Freiwilliges Soziales Jahr (FSJ) volunteer program in cooperation with bpa Bayern and the Internationaler Bund.

As a regulated German Stiftung supervised by the Regierung von Oberbayern, ICP is funded through a mix of social insurance reimbursements, government subsidies, individual contributions, and donations (channeled via the Förderverein Spastiker-Zentrum e.V. and banking partner Bank im Bistum Essen eG). All services are delivered directly through the foundation's own facilities in Munich; the operating footprint is exclusively within Bavaria, with no geographic expansion disclosed. The foundation is led by Thomas Pape as Chairman of the Foundation Board and operates with 501–1,000 employees; revenue is not publicly disclosed.
