Two little girls and two little boys from Kongerslev has got an extra contribution to their old age pension because they received Christian The Fourth´s Guild´s triplet/quadruplet grant.
The grant was instituted in 1943 and are given to every triplet and quadruplet born in Aalborg. They each get a certain amount of money which time and inflation has raised to 1,500 DKK in 2018.
The quadruplets were born the 20th of April 2018. The quadruplets are named Leah, Noah, Axel and Ella; their father and mother are Anna and Luis Isaksson.
Four benchers from the Guild visited the family and presented the grant and the money.
The mother received a bouquet of flowers and the father got a bottle of Laugsbitter. For the older brother Theo there was a box of Lego. For the small ones there also was a small bunch of flowers.
Christian The Fourth´s Guild was founded in Duus´ Vinkjælder in Jens Bangs Stenhus in December 1942 and the quadruplet/triplet grant was instituted a few months later. Last time it was presented was in 2017.
