The Trustee For The Herbert Allen Bequest (Psychiatric Illness And Intellectual Donations Trust Fund)
Tips for Applicants
Applicants should ensure their program strictly meets the bequest's specific purpose, targeting children aged 8-18 with an intellectual disability who are Victorian residents and cannot afford the excursion. Organizations are required to submit an acquittal report after the grant is expended, detailing how the funds were used. Failure to submit an acquittal may result in exclusion from future funding rounds.
Giving Philosophy
The foundation's giving philosophy is highly targeted, aiming to provide enriching experiences for children with intellectual disabilities who face financial barriers. It focuses on funding bus excursions to ensure these children, aged between eight and eighteen and residing in Victoria, can participate in programs they would otherwise miss.
