Fondation Sana is a Swiss charitable foundation focused on strengthening a well-functioning, socially oriented healthcare system. It supports health promotion, prevention, research, teaching, and practical help for people in need, and it also recognizes outstanding commitment through the Prix Sana. Recent grantees suggest a particular interest in grassroots initiatives and individuals helping vulnerable groups, especially children and families in medical or care settings.
Grants are made through its health promotion/research/prevention fund, with support directed to Swiss projects in healthcare-related fields. It also appears to award annual recognition grants/prizes such as Prix Sana, including both organizational and individual honorees; the process looks program-based and likely selective rather than open-ended.
Focus proposals on Swiss health-related work that clearly advances prevention, research, education, or health promotion, especially for vulnerable populations. If applying for the fund, align the project tightly with one of these themes; for Prix Sana, monitor the foundation’s announcements and nomination process rather than assuming open calls.
