The grant-making activities of the Bodossaki Foundation further its vision of a society of equal opportunities and prospects for all, structured in line with the Foundation’s four strategic action pillars:

    • Empowering Civil Society
    • Protecting the Environment

GRANT-MAKING PROGRAMMES

The Foundation accepts applications for grants from public-law entities and private-law non-profit entities for the following programmes:

  • The ‘Open Grants Programme’, which accepts applications throughout the year submitted by public entities and non-profit organisations, who must use the Foundation’s customised online platform. Priority is given to applications with a budget of up to €5,000. Details about the procedure for the submission & evaluation of grant applications are available here. In 2025, it is not projected that any school requests will be covered by the resources of the ‘Open Grants Programme’, as the Bodossaki Foundation actively supports schools and their students through nationwide educational programs such as “Experience Science” and “Young Business Talents”.
  • The ‘Thematic Grants Programme’ is launching thematic calls for funding to address social needs which have been identified as priority action areas for the coming year. In 2025, the ‘Thematic Grants Programme’ will be co-funded by the Bodossaki Foundation, the John S. Latsis Public Benefit Foundation, and the TIMA Public Benefit Foundation, with a focus on Healthy Ageing. The aim of the Foundations is to contribute collectively, to the best of their ability, to improving the quality of life for older adults in Greece.

    Within the framework of the Programme, a total budget of €300,000 will be allocated, with grants of up to €50,000 per selected project, starting in December 2025 and lasting from 8 to 12 months.

The Foundation also co-ordinates, manages and co-funds grant-making programmes in partnership with third parties. These programmes currently include:
