THE SNORRI PROGRAM

The Snorri Foundation is a non-profit organization that operates two programs: the Snorri Program & Snorri Plus. Co-operative partners are the Nordic Association and the Icelandic National League of Iceland.
The Foundation also co-operates with the Snorri West Program which is operated by the INL of NA.

Our Programs all focus on the history of Icelandic settlers in North America. If you have Icelandic ancestors, if you are interested in the settlement history or just love to travel - the Snorri Program might be the one for you.

"The best weeks of my life! Thanks for this opportunity!"

"The Program was great; I enjoyed my experience to the fullest.
Definitely worth it"

"I loved meeting my relatives, I connected with them so well and learned so much from them about Iceland and our family history"

"A special part of the program was getting in touch with Icelandic cousins who shared the same heritage I do. I learned so much of the history and culture of my ancestors plus touring and walking in the diverse landscape helped me to appreciate the land of fire and ice.
