Stichting Fonds van Wijlen Doctor Jacobus van Zanten supports practical, locally rooted aid for vulnerable people and institutions, with a clear emphasis on food and heating/fuel assistance. It also backs energy costs for Mennonite (Doopsgezinde) congregations and institutions, as well as preservation of church/cultural heritage and nature conservation/education, especially in Kennemerland and more broadly in the Netherlands. The grantee list suggests a strong connection to Doopsgezinde communities in Haarlem and nearby institutions, with grants often tied to essential operating needs rather than broad programmatic initiatives.
Likely makes modest project grants and direct support grants on an application basis, with a preference for specific needs such as food, heating, and utility costs. Giving appears focused on Dutch organizations, especially Doopsgezinde congregations and institutions in Kennemerland, rather than open-ended large-scale funding.
