Welcome

Mission

The AEC Trust is a private foundation established in 1980 as a philanthropic, grantmaking organization. It is governed by an Advisory Board that sets policy and is responsible for the review of grants.

Grant Applications

In 2025, the AEC Trust began winding down its grantmaking after more than four decades of philanthropy. Invitations to submit funding requests are sent directly from Trust representatives to invited applicants. Additional invitations will not be extended.

The AEC Trust offers its sincere gratitude to past grantees for their partnership.
