Funding

Rutgers WPF is an independent non-profit organisation with social objectives. We aim for the most effective and efficient input of public funds. We obtain our income from parties that set great store by improving sexual and reproductive health in and outside the Netherlands and are therefore willing to raise funds for Rutgers WPF, sometimes by giving concrete assignments.

Rutgers WPF has an ANBI status and CBF quality mark.

Dutch Ministry of Health

The Dutch Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport (VWS) annually awards an institutional subsidy, which helps us to carry out basic activities in the Netherlands. However, Rutgers WPF has to raise funds from other sources to finance larger projects.

Funds and other parties

Rutgers WPF submits project proposals for Dutch programmes to charity funds such as the VSB Fund, Stichting Kinderpostzegels (Children’s Charity), Fonds Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek Seksualiteit (Fund for Academic Research on Sexuality) or the Innovatiefonds Zorgverzekeraars (Innovation Fund Health Insurance). We also submit calls to ministries (Health, Education, Justice), or related parties (such as ZonMw, the Dutch organisation for health research and development) and social organisations.

Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs plays an important part in financing our international work. Rutgers WPF is one of the participants of the SRHR Alliance Unite for Body Rights Programme and receives subsidy on the basis of the Co-Financing System MFS 2.

Commissions and private assets funds

Moreover, Rutgers WPF tenders to calls from international organisations, such as the European Union and the World Bank and we receive grants from both Dutch and international private assets funds. Likewise, Rutgers WPF receives an annual grant from the Dutch Postcode Lottery.
