About Stichting Jan Roelof Geertsmafonds

Stichting Jan Roelof Geertsmafonds is a small, place-based grantmaker focused on Fryslân, with a clear preference for initiatives that strengthen Friese taal en cultuur, local cultural life, and community organizations. It also supports the Nederlands Hervormde kerk in Boornbergum and selected sports clubs, especially music and singing groups and non-football/non-combat sports. Grants appear to be modest project or activity contributions rather than large institutional awards, making the fund a good fit for locally rooted nonprofits with a specific event, program, or cultural activity.

Giving Approach

Small project and activity grants, typically around $200-$1,500, for organizations and initiatives in Fryslân. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis with no fixed annual deadline listed, and requests should be submitted at least 3 months before the project start date.

How to approach this funder

Apply well in advance—at least 3 months before the planned start—and keep the request tightly focused on a specific project or activity in Fryslân. Emphasize how the work supports Frisian language/culture, local music or cultural life, or an eligible community or sports association; avoid football and combat-sport framing.
