Louis Lafosse Educational
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The charity's purpose is educational, with a stated emphasis on children educated in line with Roman Catholic principles, but its objects are not limited to Catholic education, so a school or educational body with a pupil-support need may fit.
- Its reported giving goes through educational institutions and bursaries for pupils whose parents cannot meet fees, so a request built around that kind of support matches how it describes its work.
- Neither a grant range nor a published application process is given in the annual report or on its register entry, so the size of a request is hard to judge and a short first enquiry is the only route the available information suggests.
- Nothing published says how competitive it is or when it decides, so ask about timing in that enquiry.
- No exclusions are stated, so a non-Catholic school should not assume it is ruled out.
