FUNDACIÓN VÍCTIMAS DEL TERRORISMO 95 - ENGLISH

6 NEWS ASSISTANCE GRANTS Support for victims of terrorism is not governed by calendars or accounting balances. It is a continuous, quiet, and profoundly human task renewed each year with the same goal: to remain clo- se to those who need it most. The assis- tance work carried out by the Victims of Terrorism Foundation (FVT) during fiscal year 2025 is part of that commit- ment, a period in which direct support for victims and their families once again stood as one of the priority pillars of its institutional activity. Over the past year, the Foundation the- refore maintained and strengthened its assistance grant system, designed to provide an effective, personalized response that complements the work of public authorities. This work goes beyond figures and translates into gui- dance, protection, and real support for individuals and families who continue to face the consequences of terrorist violence. A COORDINATED AND COMPLEMENTARY CARE MODEL The award of direct assistance to victims of terrorism has been an essential prio- rity for the Foundation since its establi- shment. To ensure its effectiveness, this assistance program is implemented in close cooperation with the General State Administration — through the Directo- rate-General for Support to Victims of Terrorism of the Ministry of the Interior — with the autonomous communities through the competent bodies in this area, and with the various victims' asso- ciations, whose psychosocial care depart- ments play a key role in identifying needs and providing continuing support. This cooperative model makes it possible to optimize resources, avoid duplication, and above all ensure that assistance rea- ches those who truly need it. The Foun- dation also channels part of its assistance work through projects included in its pu- ASSISTANCE GRANTS FOR VICTIMS OF TERRORIST ATTACKS DURING FISCAL YEAR 2025 The FVT's ongoing commitment to victims blic call for Collaboration Grants, thereby supporting other associations and foun- dations of victims of terrorism that carry out this same work locally. A STRENGTHENED BUDGET FOR A FIRM COMMITMENT The Ministry of the Interior, the ministry to which the Victims of Terrorism Foun- dation is attached, authorized the award of assistance grants for 2025 charged to the budget approved by the Board of Trustees, the Foundation's highest governing body. Particularly noteworthy is that the budget allocated to these grants rose in 2025 to 220,000 euros, representing a 10% in- crease over previous years. This increase, included in the Action Plan approved by the Board of Trustees in June 2024, clearly reflects the strengthening of the Founda- tion's commitment to comprehensive care for victims of terrorism and their families. 144 beneficiaries 520 grants awarded 214.946 euros
