Step 1: Letter of Inquiry

New Applicants - Organizations we would consider funding must show evidence that they believe that Youth Voice is an essential component in helping to build healthy communities. Please review our “Strategy” section on this website to determine if your organization meets our areas of focus and geographical criteria. Letter of Inquiry approval is required before you are invited to apply for funding. Previous grantees may make a phone inquiry.

The Letter of Inquiry should be no more than two pages. Please succinctly describe the background and purpose of the organization and briefly outline the project or program for which funding is being sought. Please be sure to indicate how your program fits with our strategy and how youth voice is developed in your program.

Once the Perrin Family Foundation reviews your Letter of Inquiry, we will contact you to let you know if we plan invite your organization to complete an application.

Step 2: Application/Reports

Should your organization be invited to apply for funding, we will provide you with our application. We have three grant cycles throughout the calendar year. Please submit just one copy of the application and requested attachments by mail. We have an informal Interim Report and a formal Final Report due during the year of funding. Please see schedule below.
