Applications addressed to the Board of Directors

The next application period for the Finnish Forest Foundation's large grants is 1.9.-10.10.2025.

The board of the foundation decides on large grants of more than 5,000 euros. Large grants are agreed twice a year. The focus of the spring call is science and research and forest nature projects.
