Brussels Airport Fund launches new project call

Good news for organisations near the airport: this year too, the Brussels Airport Fund is launching a new project call for financial support of up to €10,000 in 2027. 

Anyone with a strong community-focused project can apply: including schools, sports clubs, non-profit organisations, neighbourhood committees and youth groups. ​ Projects must make a positive difference to the local living environment in areas such as the environment, nature, social cohesion, green mobility, circularity, energy, or a combination of these themes. ​ Applications for the regular operation of an organisation are not eligible. ​

Already 42 projects making a positive impact on local communities and nature

Since the creation of the fund in 2023, €362,000 has been awarded to 42 projects.

A few examples of projects that received support:

• During the previous project call, the non-profit organisation Nido in Haren received financial support for the further development of its inclusive care garden. Thanks to Brussels Airport’s contribution, the non-profit organisation was able to purchase a mobile relaxation area and build a terrace where people with disabilities can take a break during the vegetable garden workshops. This summer, TuinKafé will serve as a welcoming meeting place for local residents and young people.
• The Borrekensveld neighbourhood park in Grimbergen was opened in late 2025. ​ This green recreational area and park for local residents was selected following the 2023 call for projects. Thanks in part to support from the airport, the park was completely redeveloped and transformed into a sustainable green space for people of all ages.
