Description
1) Objective
The Hippocrene Foundation is a family-owned non-profit organisation that works to promote the construction of genuine European citizenship by young people building the future of Europe. The Foundation’s mission is to support concrete projects sponsored by or for young Europeans, in all areas (culture, education, social and humanitarian) that leave way for dialogue and sharing to build a sense of common European citizenship.
Social and humanitarian projects are largely implemented in Eastern Europe (mostly Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia). Since 2010, the Foundation also has the Hippocrene Prize for Education for Europe, which rewards the best European partnership projects carried out by a class and its teachers.
2) Eligibility
Non-profit organisations that promote the construction of genuine European citizenship by young people building the future of Europe are eligible.
3) Location
They fund Europewide, but social and humanitarian projects are mostly granted for Eastern Europe (currently in Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia).
4) Budget
They support around 50 projects per year. Grants range up to €240,000.
5) Application
Applications can be sent all year round and must be submitted through the Foundation’s website (online registration form). The response time is generally four to six weeks.
