Discover Funding Opportunities

This grant supports central-level voluntary organizations that provide activity programs in at least five municipalities for children and youth aged 0-24 who are at risk of social exclusion. The program funds projects organized as group activities during leisure time, including national summer vacation programs, year-round leisure activities, or combinations of vacation and leisure activities. Activities must take place during children's free time - afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. The grant requires organizations to be registered in the Norwegian Volunteer Registry and to have activities in at least five municipalities or districts. Organizations must contribute a minimum of 5% co-financing of the total grant amount. The program aims to prevent social exclusion among children and youth from low-income families, those lacking social networks, those disconnected from school or work, and those not participating in leisure activities.
