The Social Cultural Foundation of the Amersfoortse, or A-foundation, emerged in 1982 from the Foundation The Blue-White Cross (Dutch: Stichting Het Blauw-Witte Kruis) founded in 1938. The foundation’s aim is to promote social and cultural activities in general and in the greater Amersfoort area in particular.
Applications for a financial contribution to a social-cultural activity are accepted when submitted by a foundation or association; individuals cannot apply. The application should come with a description of the activity and the related budget. The contributions made by the fund are one-off and range from a few hundred to a maximum of a few thousand euros.
