About Us

SENSE Foundation Brussels is a private foundation established in Belgium in 2019.

The motto of the SENSE Foundation Brussels, Scientia et Education Naturam Sanitatemque Emuniunt (Science and Education Preserve Nature and Health), summarizes our founders' belief that Science and Education can have a strong positive impact on Environment and Health protection.

SENSE Foundation Brussels supports projects, initiatives and non-profit organisations in Belgium and abroad that align with the following objectives:

Supporting scientific research, start-ups and /or NGOs focused on improving and protecting health (with a specific emphasis on genetics and nutrition), the environment and sustainable development;
Supporting students who study or carry out research in science with a special focus on genetics or nutrition, environment protection and sustainable development, as well as in specific arts and culture areas, but who lack sufficient financial resources (merit and need-based scholarships and financial grants);
Providing ad hoc assistance to charitable organisations and NGOs helping people dealing with specific/temporary hardship with a focus on vulnerable populations, children and women.

When possible, grants to students will favor Women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics).
