Quaker Education Grants

Grants are for both individuals and groups. QEF makes up a budget each year with the grants listed.

  • Small Grants: There are small grants-up to $1000. These may be applied for at any time.
  • Larger Grants: There are larger grants - up to $5000. These larger grants are made in March and September.
  • QUNO Geneva Summer School Annual Scholarship: Up to $5000.
  • Two Major Grants: There are two major named scholarships: the Margaret Caverhill Bequest and Tessa Malcolm Bequest.

These major grants are available on a two-yearly basis:

  • The Margaret Caverhill Bequest for years ending in even numbers, e.g. 2024, 2026 etc.
  • The Tessa Malcolm Bequest for years ending in odd numbers, e.g. 2025, 2027 etc.

For example, in 2024 there should be applications for the Tessa Malcolm Bequest covering educational grants for 2025.

In 2025, there should be applications for the Margaret Caverhill Bequest covering educational grants for 2026.

Applications normally close on 31st October of the relevant application year.
