Bursaries | Snupu

Snupu aims to make sailing accessible to as many young people as possible, regardless of their financial situation. For years, Snupu has been providing its members grants to participate in Sail Training events. You can apply for a grant all year round.

In recent years, grants have been awarded for events such as The Tall Ships Races, Atlantic crossings and Norwegian coastal sailing.

Please note that we cannot award grants once the event has already taken place. We recommend that you submit your application as early as possible.

Unfortunately, the application form is currently only available in Finnish. However, we welcome grant applications from all members and recommend that you contact the Board for further assistance in completing the form.

and discounts for sailing trips organised by the Sail Training Foundation Finland

The Foundation wants as many young people as possible, regardless of their background, to have the same adventures on the water. If you are aged 29 or under and interested in sailing with the Foundation, but your financial situation does not allow you to participate, you can apply for a fee waiver or discount.

Discount on Sail Training Foundation Finland events for Snupu's regular members

Young people up to the age of 29 can participate at the reduced price. Participants must be max 29 years old at the start of the event.

Prices are pre-calculated in the booking system. A prerequisite for the Snupu discount is a paid membership fee for the current season.
