Applicants will be informed about the Rights Now foundation’s final decision regarding grant funding in January/February each year. All applicants will receive an email from us, no matter if a grant has been approved or not. 

Applicants which are to receive a grant will need to sign a grant letter stating the basic conditions for our grants. The letter needs to be signed and returned to the Rights Now foundation for any grants to be transferred to the organization and project.

Grants can be transferred to the organization at the earliest in February each year.
