Funding Opportunities
Främja vetenskaplig forskning
Per Skårmans Stiftelse provides grants for scientific research in the fields of technology and medicine. The foundation supports both basic and specialized research, and grants can be awarded to individual researchers, research groups, institutions, or organizations. According to the founder's statutes, the research must be publicly disseminated to be considered of public benefit. Research must be affiliated with universities, colleges, or equivalent institutions. Grants are not provided for undergraduate research and must support research after completion of an academic degree at master's level or higher. Currently, the foundation is supporting a three-year research project at Karolinska Institutet with a substantial amount, which limits their ability to support additional large research projects at this time.
Understöd för att bereda undervisning eller utbildning
Per Skårmans Stiftelse provides support grants for teaching and education. The foundation distributes grants to support those who provide teaching or education, as well as individuals who wish to pursue professional development. According to the founder's directive, grants are primarily awarded to youth teachers and sports teachers, but can also be given to sports leaders. Studies can be conducted in Sweden or abroad, and grants are only paid out for future studies. The foundation has established this program to help educators and sports instructors develop their skills and knowledge that will benefit primarily young people. Non-profit organizations that provide education to these categories can also apply for grants.
Hjälpverksamhet bland behövande
Per Skårmans Stiftelse provides grants to organizations that conduct aid work among people in need. This funding supports organizations working with vulnerable groups such as the homeless, substance abusers, refugees, people with disabilities, chronically ill individuals, or other at-risk populations. The foundation does not provide grants directly to individuals; instead, individuals in economically vulnerable situations can apply to Föreningen FVO, which receives funding from the foundation for its support activities. Organizations must submit a complete application with required documentation, and applications are reviewed by the foundation's working group and board, which makes decisions four times per year. Recipients must provide an account of how the granted funds were used within 12 months of receiving the grant.
Främja vård och uppfostran av barn
Per Skårmans Stiftelse provides grants to support activities that promote the care and upbringing of children and youth. The foundation supports charitable activities aimed at children and young people, covering their physical, intellectual, and social development. Activities that provide opportunities for play and learning, companionship and recreation are eligible for funding. Examples include sports, cultural, political and religious youth activities, as well as programs for disabled, sick or socially vulnerable children. Preventive work against various forms of abuse may also be eligible for grants. The purpose was previously focused on supporting children's basic needs for food, shelter and daily care, but now includes most charitable activities aimed at children and youth under 18 years, and in some cases up to 21 years.
