Skibsreder Carsten Brebøls Almennyttige Fond (Brebølfonden) is a Danish public-benefit grant-making foundation established in 1995 by shipowner Carsten Brebøl. It awards grants to organisations, museums and associations that benefit the broad Danish population, with a focus on Danish culture and language, history, and nature and animal welfare. Typical grants range from DKK 50,000 to 500,000, with total annual grants of roughly DKK 2 to 5 million. Applications are accepted year-round and are generally reviewed in May and December. The foundation does not support activities that give private individuals financial benefit, such as personal travel, scholarships, property renovation or commercial activities. Accounts are prepared and audited by Danske Bank.
