About Nordea-fonden

Nordea-fonden supports activities which promote good living in Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands. We are an independent Danish philanthropic foundation. Since 1989, we have allocated returns to support non-profit, public and charitable purposes for over EUR 913 mio.

What we support

Nordea-fonden supports the good life. Every year we donate about DKK 900 million (EUR 120 million) to projects within four focus areas: health, exercise, nature and culture. In addition we support initatives promoting vocational education. 

Nordea-fonden has a charitable purpose and supports projects that promote a good quality of life in Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands. We don’t have the perfect recipe for achieving the good life, but we do believe that it’s something we create together. 

The projects vary in scale, but what they all have in common is that they benefit people throughout the country. We also provide grants for Danish, Greenlandic and Faroese students studying abroad. 

In 2024, we expect to donate around EUR 114 million. Read more about what we support: Donation strategy

Ethical conduct is a core value

Nordea-fonden aim for ethical conduct in everything we do and are involved in. Ethical conduct is one of our three values and the basis of the public trust in our work and management of the foundation's funds.

In order to promote and safeguard this core value we have established two whistle-blower programmes: one for issues pertaining to the foundations and one for issues pertaining to the grant recipients.
