San Francisco
San FranciscoSWEA is the largest organization outside Sweden promoting the Swedish language, culture, and tradition. Internationally SWEA grants around $200,000 a year in donations and scholarships. In addition to the annual scholarship program administrated by SWEA International, SWEA San Francisco has its own program recognizing individuals and institutions mostly in the Bay Area. Every year, grants are awarded to Swedish schools and preschools in the Bay Area, the Church of Sweden in San Francisco, and a SWEA travel stipends to UC Berkeley undergraduate students who are planning to pursue studies in Sweden. Smaller grants are also awarded to various cultural groups and organizations with Swedish connections.
We are accepting applications on an ongoing basis throughout the year.
