Hugos Stiftelse
& Glädjeruset

As a group, children and young people with disa-
bilities are often physically inactive, not by choice
but because it is difficult to find physical activities
adapted to them. To address this issue, the foundation
Hugos Stiftelse raises funds to support associations
and organizations that aim to promote an active and
healthy lifestyle for children and young people with
disabilities. Glädjeruset, a race event that allows
everyone to participate in their own way, is among the
fundraising activities organized by the foundation.

In 2023, Glädjeruset broke its records for the
number of participants with over 1,000 people
joining the race in Täby, and participation increased
in the virtual races and the races in Skellefteå as
well. The Heritage Fund project Hugoloppet was
launched in January to encourage physical activity in
adapted primary and secondary schools across the
country. The school races are already a huge success
with over 50 schools and 2,000 pupils registered.

The foundation has also awarded scholarships to
various organizations including RBU, the Swedish
national association for mobility-impaired children
and youth. hugosstiftelse.se | gladjeruset.se

Bitprop

Bitprop was founded in 2019 out of the conviction
that, in addition to making people more independ-
ent, good entrepreneurship can contribute to
sustainable, long-term solutions. Bitprop helps land-
owners turn their properties into income-generating
assets of long-term value. Property owners lease
part of their land, and Bitprop provides investment
to build rental apartments. By sharing rental income
for a set period, the partnership provides an immedi-
ate stable income that benefits the property owner
and their family for many years to come.
