Procedures: Working with the
Foundation for World Education

Currently the Foundation for World Education (FWE) has a board of eight voting members and one secretary who is a nonvoting member and carries out the administrative business for the organization. All grants are made at one of the board's annual meetings based on review of applicants' grant proposals.

  • With Auroville, the board takes up requests that have been presented by the Auroville Project Coordination Group.
  • With U.S. centers, the individual who carries out the project typically submits the funding proposal.
  • All grants must be made to a registered 501c3 in the U.S. or an equivalent nonprofit status for an overseas organization. Your organization must file these papers with our office before a grant can be extended.
  • Grant guidelines can be obtained at anytime through the administrative office via email or regular post. Write to Paula Murphy, Secretary, FWE, 303, 26th Pl. North, La Crosse, WI 54601, or send email to pmurphy@gundluth.org.
  • Upon receipt of your request, you will receive guidelines and a schedule for submission. Proposal need to be received 30 days prior to a scheduled meeting. The next scheduled meeting dates for the year 2008 are February 10th (when the bulk of the year's granting will be done) and June 22nd and October 9-12, 2008.
