What the examples have in common

  • A local organisation with direct knowledge of the people it serves.
  • A practical request with a clear cost.
  • A result that can be described and reported.
  • A connection to one of the foundation's five focus areas.

Reading the archive carefully

The projects above were funded in earlier years. A past grant does not mean that an organisation is currently receiving support, and it does not imply a continuing partnership. Current funding decisions are made through the foundation's grant process.

From bazaar to grant

The 2015 bazaar raised more than 320,000 BGN. Funds like these are what allow the foundation to support projects of different sizes. Read about the bazaar.
