No, this one was issued by an association called Reichsbund der Kinderreichen Deutschlands zum Schutze der Familie e. V.
 
This association existed since 1922, its aim, as the name suggests, was to support families with many children. The requirement was at least 4 children, or 3 in the case of widows.
Improved maternity protection, tax relief, housing, etc. were his self-declared tasks, i.e. help for self-help.
The goals coincided with those of the state, as did the means (eugenics), which is why the RdK (later RDF) was banned in 1945.
Associations with this social objective still exist today, of course.
 
Thank you Garry and Jack. I purchased this particular tinnie over 20 years ago for my collection. I subsequently purged it and other jugend-related tinnies affiliated with organizations other than the Hitler Youth. Many dealers present this tinnie and other jugend tinnies as HJ.
 
Correction...it was 13 years ago. I just noticed my original post about receiving this tinnie in the mail...under similar threads. Wow what a surprise!
