Subsidy Request
Down below you can find all the funds that we are handling within the Student Union, who they are for and when you can apply!
The Axel Adlerbert Stipend Fund
This fund is for HHGS members.
Purpose
The Axel Adlerberts Stipend Fund was founded in 1938 by a man named Axel Adlerbert. Adlerbert himself studied at The School of Business Economics and Law and graduated in 1929. He later became an honorary doctor of the school. The purpose of the Stipend Fund is to enable the Student Union Board to give stipends to members of the student Union who have made themselves known as “a good friend”.
Who can I nominate?
- You can nominate anyone who is a member of HHGS
- You can not send in a nomination regarding yourself
- You can nominate several people for the same action, then you send in the same nomination regarding all of them at once
- You can also nominate several individuals separately by filling in the form again for every new nominee
But what does a good friend mean then? We do not have the answer and Axel Adlerbert probably did not either. Everyone interprets the meaning of a good friend differently and that is part of the charm of this fund. The most important thing is that you nominate someone who you believe fits in the description and that you in a good way describe why we should think so as well.
You send in the nomination by filling in the form below.
The nomination is opened twice every year, once in the spring and once in the fall. The nomination period for the spring is open between 29th of april to 20th of may.
If you have any questions regarding The Axel Adlerberts Stipend Fund don’t hesitate to contact Hilda Persson at president@hhgs.se or Stella Donning at vice@hhgs.se.
