Aargau changes deadlines for Swisslos applications
In future, the deadline for Swisslos Fund applications in the cultural and educational sectors in Aargau will be the first of the quarter (January 1, April 1, July 1, October 1, as per postmark).
The cantonal government can support charitable and non-profit projects of regional or cantonal importance from the Swisslos Fund. Projects outside the cantonal territory must be of considerable importance for the canton of Aargau or for Switzerland as a whole.
In addition to cultural and educational projects, projects in the areas of youth and education, education and research, nature and the environment, development cooperation and health and social services are also co-financed from Swisslos funds on application.
The prerequisite is that the application (with a detailed description and budget) presents a broadly supported financing plan, is submitted up to twelve weeks before implementation and there is no legal basis under public law for the planned project.
More information on the award criteria and the scope of support provided by the Swisslos Fund Aargau (also in distinction to the Aargau Board of Trustees) can be found on the Internet under the keyword "Cultural Promotion" at www.ag.ch/kultur.
