The Dr. Jules Bouts Fund provides financial support to local, recognized Flemish youth movements for innovative projects aiming for positive social impact.

The fund supports initiatives that go beyond regular activities and are innovative, feasible, and realistic with a view to long-term societal added value. Projects can be submitted on themes such as inclusion, health, well-being and safety, social education, and environment and ecology. Examples include workshops on bullying or addiction, inclusive camps, collaborations with poverty organizations, or activities to attract new members.
All local recognized youth movements in the Flemish Community are eligible. The maximum support per project is € 2,000. A youth movement group can receive a maximum of € 5,000 over a five-year period.
Applications can be submitted via candidate.kbs-frb.be. This requires creating an account or logging in to complete the online application file. The deadline for submission is December 3, 2026.
More information and inspiration can be found on the fund's website.
