Welcome to:

The
June & Julian
Foss Foundation
Home Page

 

 

The Philosophy of the June & Julian Foss Foundation is based on love of family, respect for diversity, intolerance of bigotry, and generosity of self. We consider society's most important strength to be that of families, though we may define family broadly. We value integrity, self-reliance, self-esteem, and spirituality, and we consider a sense of humor to be an important attribute. We intend to support programs and projects, especially those directed to children and youth, that promote these values and that encourage an entrepreneurial spirit and a sense of curiosity and wonder.

Our major goal is to change the life situations of young people in order to help them grow into healthy, responsible adults. We prefer to fund programs that provide preventive options, rather than enrichment experiences (as important as those are).

Friends:

We are sad to announce that, effective immediately, we will no longer be able to consider grant applications from Arizona. We no longer have a family member available to make site visits in the area. We truly appreciate the fine projects we have been able to be involved with in that area, and we wish them all the best.

Beginning November 1, 2008, and until January 6, 2009, we will be accepting applications for our 2008 - 2009 grant cycle.

When we are in the middle of an open grant period you may follow this link
 Foss Foundation Online Eligibility Quiz and LOI to complete a short eligibility quiz and then, so long as you pass the quiz, you will be able to immediately review and/or complete our online LOI.
