Tips for Applicants

Organisations looking for support would likely need to align with the Youth Foyer™ model and its 'Advantaged Thinking' principles. Demonstrating a commitment to accreditation and participation in a national community of practice would also be beneficial, as the foundation supports the growth and standards of the Foyer network.

Giving Philosophy

The Foyer Foundation's giving philosophy is centred around an 'Advantaged Thinking' approach to youth development, focusing on building sustainable and thriving futures for young people. They employ an innovative, evidence-informed strategy to grow and accredit Youth Foyers, aiming for 50 Foyers by 2030. Their support involves national accreditation, fostering a community of practice, and increasing the reach and impact of the Foyer model, rather than traditional reactive grant-making.
