It's important that your project fits within our goals. Make sure to read them carefully before you submit your application.

The above vision and mission guide us. The following aspects are important to us:

  • Is there inspiration combined with hands-on work, vision, and practice?
  • Does the initiative fit with the biography of the initiators?
  • Is the initiative suitable for this time, and does it have an adequate contemporary form?
  • How broad is the support (intended), how well is it embedded, and is social fabric growing?
  • Is there a sustainable perspective and potential for growth towards independent existence?
1. Making agriculture, food chains, nature, and the economy more sustainable. 2. Developing inspired, human-centered healthcare and education: initiatives and research and development. 3. Creating new social connections, a contemporary social fabric where people and their environment connect both inwardly and outwardly; a sense of community. 4. Supporting art/artists with social engagement and artistic work & life. Also in relation to nature and religion, the higher.

Who are we and who are you?

We value personal contact. That's why we want to get to know every applicant. That's different from most foundations and funds.
