When Adri Zwaanswijk, best known as "Swan", ended his korfball career, the Swan Fund was founded.
It's aim
was to continue Swan's pioneering efforts on the internationalisation of
korfball.
The
International Korfball Federation (IKF), the Dutch Korfball Association (KNKV)
and Swan himself donated the initial financial base. The Fund is maintained and
expanded by contributions of friends, supporters and clubmembers of the Swan
Fund.
The
foundation date and place are September 29, 1992; Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
The Swan
Fund is a non-profit organisation.
Objectives
Since 1992
the Swan Fund aims to promote the development of international korfball.
The Fund
financially supports development programs of organisations related to the
International Korfball Federation (IKF).
Associations,
clubs and individuals can submit requests for financial support. If a proposal
meets the selection criteria and has a sufficient chance of success, it can be
supported.
The board
mostly meets 4 times a year to discuss organisation,
fundings, projects and grants of the Swan Fund.
The actual president
