Grants for Students

Below are the forms to use when applying for a grant on behalf of a student. If you have a request for a group, for example, 10 children who need summer camp as part of their summer programming, please use the GROUP Request Form. If your grant application is approved, this form will initiate payment directly to the camp or organization on behalf of the students listed. Be sure to include the student's first and last names as well as their current grade.

If you have a request for just one student to take an exam or music lessons for example, please use the INDIVIDUAL Request Form. If your grant application is approved, this form will initiate a payment to the organization on behalf of the one student listed. If online payment is required, please fill in the section with the login credentials necessary to make a direct payment. Login credentials will be kept confidential.

Please note we are unable to reimburse students or families directly;
see below for specific details.

WORLD LANGUAGE Trips

As the World Language Trips cost upwards of $2,000, PCF requires specific documentation and information to review these requests. The World Language Trip application will guide you through the requirements. As the Requestor, you must gather the information before submitting the request. You will be asked to upload documentation as well. If you have difficulty with this grant request application, please email us with questions at president@princetonchildrensfund.org.

Direct Pay Grants

All payments made on behalf of students are sent directly to the organization providing the goods or services. Please note, that we do not reimburse students or families directly - even if the expense would have been covered had a grant request application been submitted and approved.

In certain instances, we negotiate a rate for our eligible students quite different from the retail rate. Additionally, we cannot guarantee that all grant requests will be approved as they can be funding-dependent. Given these two variables, we do not work in a reimbursement-style partnership. We do our best to process requests in a timely fashion and manage time-sensitive deadlines. If you have any questions about our work or a specific grant request, please email us at president@princetonchildrensfund.org.
