About Fundación Madrid por el Deporte

Fundación Madrid por el Deporte is a Madrid-based sports and cultural foundation focused on strengthening the regional sports ecosystem by linking athletics with education, culture, and values such as integration and convivencia. Its primary direct funding vehicle is an annual scholarship program for standout athletes from the Comunidad de Madrid, designed to help them dedicate themselves to elite competition and peak performance. Beyond grants, it appears to work through institutional partnerships and sports-related activities with public bodies, sponsors, and recognized sports leaders.

Giving Approach

Primarily an annual, program-specific scholarship fund for individual athletes; support is competitive and time-bound, with a short application window. It also appears to engage in partnership-based support, sponsorship-linked initiatives, and institutional collaborations rather than open-ended grantmaking.

How to approach this funder

Watch the annual Becas FMxD call closely and apply within the posted deadline window (for example, 6–20 October in 2025). Eligibility is limited to athletes from the Comunidad de Madrid, so applicants should be prepared to document sporting performance, competitive level, and connection to the region; this is not an open general grant program.
