Stiftelsen Svenska Djurfonden supports animal welfare in a very direct, practical way: helping vulnerable animals through grants to nonprofits, limited-resource private individuals, and research that can improve animal well-being. Their portfolio suggests a strong preference for hands-on rescue and care work, sheltering and rehoming, wildlife rehabilitation, and conservation projects, alongside animal-rights and alternatives-to-animal-testing research. The foundation appears especially interested in organizations and projects based in Sweden, but it also funds some global animal welfare and species-conservation efforts.
Two annual application rounds with deadlines on March 31 and September 30. Grants are awarded through application forms for organizations and research, with support ranging from general operating support to project-specific funding; the overall pattern appears to be small-to-midsize, mission-aligned grants rather than large multi-year commitments.

Apply through the foundation’s formal application form and plan around the two decision rounds each year. Strong applications should clearly show direct benefits to animal welfare, animal health, species protection, or conservation, and Swedish organizations should emphasize local impact; research applicants should connect their project to improved animal welfare, animal rights, or reduced animal testing.
