The Mirabel Foundation Inc
Tips for Applicants
The Mirabel Foundation is not a grantmaking body - it is an operating charity that delivers direct services to children and carers. Organizations seeking funding should not approach Mirabel. However, families affected by parental drug use can be referred to Mirabel for support services. The foundation notes an average of 5 new children are referred each week and they accept 141 new families for intake annually. Contact them directly through their website to discuss eligibility and referral processes.
Giving Philosophy
Mirabel operates as a direct service provider rather than a grantmaking foundation, delivering programs directly to beneficiaries. Their philosophy is centered on never turning away a child in need, providing long-term therapeutic support throughout childhood and adolescence, and supporting kinship carers who take on the role of raising these traumatized children. They focus on creating safe spaces where children can be children, process trauma, build resilience, and develop life skills.
