WSOY:n kirjallisuussäätiö is an independent Finnish foundation dedicated to advancing Finnish literature through project grants, prizes, residencies, and efforts to promote reading. It tends to support literary initiatives with a public benefit component, especially projects that strengthen literary culture, events, and visibility for authors and reading. The foundation’s scope is broad within literature, but clearly centered on Finnish-language literary life and related audiences in Finland.
