On March 11, 2026, Alma D. Möller, the Minister of Health in Iceland, announced the allocation of 91 million Icelandic krónur in grants to 40 different non-profit organizations. These grants are aimed at supporting vital healthcare initiatives for specific groups within society. The funding amounts ranged from 400,000 to 5 million krónur, with notable recipients receiving the highest amounts, including Rótin, Hjartaheill, the Alzheimer's Association, SÍBS, and the Parkinson's Association, each awarded 5 million krónur.

The projects funded under this initiative are diverse and cater to various health-related issues faced by different communities. For example, the Icelandic POTS and ME Association received funding to develop and disseminate knowledge about chronic diseases such as long COVID, ME, and POTS. Other projects include educational material for heart disease patients, awareness campaigns in schools about endometriosis, addiction counseling services, and initiatives focused on harm reduction and mental health promotion.

This allocation not only highlights the Icelandic government's commitment to improving health services but also emphasizes the importance of community-based organizations in addressing complex health challenges. Such investments are critical in ensuring that specialized support is available for underserved populations, ultimately contributing to enhanced public health outcomes in Iceland.
