Funding decisions
Decisions are made on the basis of the Foundation's support criteria and strategic goals. We are a small foundation and the demand for support is usually greater than our annual budget. Consequently, not all projects can be considered, despite meeting the support criteria. Funding decisions are communicated in writing. There is no further correspondence in case of negative decisions.
