Information for
Project Grant
Recipients
Applicants will be informed of decisions by email. If awarded a grant, recipients must submit a payment plan and sign a grant agreement through the electronic grant system.
The payment plan must be submitted within two months of receiving a positive decision. The project’s nominated contact person is responsible for submitting the plan. Please note that July is the holiday period for Adventurous Ideas Oy, during which new payment plans are not processed. Payments based on previously approved plans may still be processed. If changes to an approved plan are needed, contact the giving back team through the system.
All funded projects are required to report on their activities. Reports must be submitted through the electronic grant system. A final report is mandatory and must be submitted within three months of project completion. An interim report is required for projects lasting more than 18 months; it must be submitted 12 months after the start date, and no later than one month after the reporting deadline.
The interim report should describe progress, results to date, and how the project supports the focus areas of the Adventurous Ideas project grant programme.
The final report must detail the full implementation, actions taken, results achieved, and overall impact, including how well the project met its original objectives and how it advanced animal rights and/or nature conservation. The report must also list other funders and provide a breakdown of costs covered by the Adventurous Ideas Oy grant.
Attachments such as statistics, images, or other relevant materials may be included if they support the report.
Grant recipients must maintain accounting in compliance with the Finnish Accounting Act and Decree.
The accounting must allow the use of the Adventurous Ideas Oy grant to be easily and reliably tracked. We recommend using a separate cost centre for the project.
The accounts must clearly show:
All income and expenses related to the grant must be recorded within the project’s grant period.
If significant changes occur that affect the original plan or budget – such as a change of contact person, substantial content modifications, or timeline adjustments, the giving back team must be informed promptly through the grant system.
We encourage grant recipients to acknowledge Sijoitus- ja vaikuttavuusyhtiö Adventurous Ideas Oy in their communications when appropriate.
Project communication materials may also include the Adventurous Ideas Oy logo.
