Giving Approach
Small, project-based subsidies for local initiatives; likely short-term and recurring, with support tied to specific activities, events, or purchases rather than multi-year general operating grants. Funding is geographically restricted to the former bank area, especially Grijpskerk and nearby villages.
How to approach this funder
Apply with a clearly defined local project that benefits residents in Grijpskerk, Kommerzijl, or Niezijl and show concrete community impact. Emphasize the specific activity, budget, timing, and local partners involved; unsolicited broad requests are less likely to fit than targeted project proposals.
