Quaker International Educational Trust (QuIET)
At a glance
Key takeaways
- QuIET's work fits best where a request concerns school-based education for young people, since education is its stated theme, its main activity is a school in the hills above Beirut, and Lebanon is its stated priority.
- Its annual giving totals £112,225 across grants to institutions, and no grant range is stated, so a modest, specific request is a sensible starting point.
- No application process is published, so the first step is to use the contact shown on its website to ask whether a request would be considered.
- Organisations whose work falls outside education or outside its stated Lebanon priority may find that their request does not match its focus.

What they fund
Priority Areas
QuIET supports education for young people within the Quaker ethos. Its work centres on owning and overseeing a school in the hills above Beirut, and it raises funds for that school and for a Quaker body that owns and oversees a school in Palestine. The school welcomes students of all faiths and opinions and from all backgrounds, and prepares young people to work together for a better country and more peaceful future. Its fundraising also supports financial aid for children whose parents could not otherwise have their children educated at the school. The foundation's stated work is therefore school-based education, including access to schooling for children facing financial barriers.
