How to Apply

If our current grant period is open you can now complete the June & Julian Foss Foundation online Eligibility Quiz and know immediately if you qualify to apply for a grant with the Foss Foundation.

To do this, follow the Eligibility Quiz link that will appear on our home page during our open application periods and complete the one page form and if you qualify you will be able to immediately do our online LOI. There is a link on the LOI page that will allow you to print out a copy of it, that is formatted for 8.5" x 11" paper so that you can research the answers offline. Please make sure to bookmark the LOI page so that you can quickly and easily return and finish filling out the online LOI.

Please do not send us paper documents related to your Grant Inquiry. In order to increase efficiency and save money on application processing (and therefore have more money to give away in grants) we are attempting to dispense with as much manual processing of paper documents as possible so, all LOIs and Grant applications may now only be submitted via our new online method.
