When your organisation receives funding from Egmont, all ongoing communication and administration related to the grant take place through our digital grant management system. This is also where we request payment schedules, progress reports, final reports, financial statements and other relevant documentation.

Below, we have briefly outlined how we follow a funded initiative from start to finish.

At Egmont, we strive to make working with us as straightforward as possible for your organisation. At the same time, as a foundation, we are subject to a number of requirements regarding documentation and governance. This means that, as a grant recipient, you are required to comply with our general terms and guidelines.

We are here to help if you have any questions, and we are available to provide guidance throughout the entire process.

The collaboration and the process

If Egmont’s Board of Directors approves your funding application, we will send you a grant letter together with the general terms and conditions for funding from the Egmont Foundation. The grant letter constitutes the formal confirmation of the grant. Please see the general terms and conditions below.

At Egmont, we continually seek to raise awareness of and communicate about both the challenges faced by children and young people in difficult circumstances and the solutions that can make a difference. We therefore also aim to increase awareness of the initiatives we support. Please see our communication guide for grant recipients below.

We ask you to provide a brief progress update on the initiative approximately twice a year. The purpose is to ensure together that the initiative is being implemented as intended and is benefiting children and young people in vulnerable situations.

We recognise that many initiatives develop differently from what was originally planned, and that adjustments can be both constructive and necessary. We are therefore, of course, available to provide guidance along the way as new opportunities and barriers arise.

When the project is completed, you must submit a final report through our digital grant management system. In the report, you should assess whether the initiative’s overall objectives and success criteria have been achieved.

As part of the completion process, you must also submit final financial statements for the initiative. The financial statements must be accompanied by an auditor’s report if the total grant amounts to DKK 1 million or more. Please see our financial reporting guidelines, audit instructions and auditor’s declaration below.
