The Avison Fund Committee is now accepting proposals for the 2025 grant cycle

Please tell your favorite child-centered organizations! Proposals are due by 5pm Tuesday, January 7, 2025. The Avison Fund was established to help improve the lives of children–helping them to grow into productive, caring yet savvy human beings. The funds must be used to directly impact the lives and well-being of children. Individual grants will be made up to $10,000. This year, the Avison Fund Committee anticipates awarding approximately 8 grants. Up to 20% of each year’s disbursements may go to Quaker organizations. In consideration of current trust-based giving, grants will not be limited to one-time projects.

To learn more about this grant, please download the Request for Proposals (RFP) included below. Paper copies are also available by request or from Amy Mecure, the Meeting secretary.

Thank you,
Cynthia Knowles (Co-Clerk), Chris Maddocks (Co-Clerk), Astrid afKlinteberg, Lance Drane, Betsy Hewitt, David Smith, Rick Talkov
