About the Foundation

The International Foundation exists to help people of the developing world in their endeavors to solve some of their problems, to attain a better standard of living and to obtain a reasonable degree of self-sufficiency.

The Foundation funds only projects of U.S.A based philanthropies having a tax-exempt status under Sec.501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code as public charities.

The International Foundation does not set geographical boundaries for its grants except that priority is given to needs outside the U.S.A. Since approximately 96% of U.S. foundation grants are for domestic needs, The International Foundation supports projects in the U.S. only if judged to be meeting very unusual and neglected needs in the U.S.A. In making grants, while The International Foundation does try to seek a geographic and sector balance, its guidelines are not to be considered rigidly confining.
Although the resources of The International Foundation are comparatively small, the Trustees are committed to a judicious application of those resources to the fundamental and sometimes desperate needs of people.
The International Foundation does not fund conferences, scholarships, or video productions.
