What we support

With a Community Engagement Grant from the Grundfos Foundation, the groundbreaking PITSTOP! project sets out to eradicate illegal pit latrines and upgrade ablution facilities in underserved communities, providing safe and hygienic sanitation solutions.

The Grundfos Foundation grants EUR 1.1 million to 17 local projects benefitting people, planet, and people all over the world.

The Foundation has provided a DKK 5 million ($725,000 USD) grant to Water Mission, a Christian engineering nonprofit. The grant will support the continued expansion of Water Mission’s disaster response program with an emphasis on improving readiness and capacity to quickly and efficiently respond to multiple disasters simultaneously.

Two out of three refugees experience prolonged humanitarian crises lasting several years, often even decades. Meanwhile, refugee camps have traditionally been designed and run as temporary solutions for acute crises. A new partnership between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the LEGO Foundation, Novo Nordisk Foundation, and Grundfos Foundation supports Kenya's ambitions to move away from a temporary approach, benefiting both refugees and local communities.

Traditionally, reduction of phosphorus in lakes has been achieved by either digging up the sediment or by adding aluminium, which binds the phosphorus. Both are radical interventions that can have a negative effect on a lake’s ecosystem.

‌Do you want to drive change? Then it’s time we talk about water. Journalists and communicators, join a series of free online workshops to boost your water knowledge and make your message go the extra mile.

Join the open seminar on Circular Phosphorus Recovery at the Technical University of Denmark or online on 22 and 23 May.

In an exciting science project, Anne Gammelmark Therkildsen and Liv Kanstrup Arami from Egå Gymnasium have described the possibilities of making plants salt tolerant so they can be irrigated with saline water and we can make crops less vulnerable to coastal flooding. Therefore, the Foundation sends the group to Stockholm in August, where they will compete in the Stockholm Junior Water Prize together with young people from all over the world.

Almost EUR 530,000 are on their way to projects around the world, where Grundfos employees support local organisations through volunteering. In Chile, victims of the recent forest fire can look forward to a helping hand.
