Fire Foundation Southwest

Brandkassefonden SydVest study-stay grant

You will receive a grant of up to 50,000 DKK per year (about 6,700 EUR) for your period of study. The amount of the grant is based on your financial needs. The foundation grew out of a former mutual fire insurance company and awards grants three times a year.

• What it's for: A study stay or educational activity. The money is for you personally and you cannot pass it on to anyone else.
