To be considered as a recipient for an Eddie Guardado Foundation Grant, you must fill out an application for review.

Family Grants awarded by The Eddie Guardado Foundation typically do not exceed $10,000 and take into consideration a family’s fincancial condition as well as the disposition of any aid (government or private) currenty being received as well as the disposition of any applicable health care coverage.

Our Board of Trustees is most interested in helping families that meet the Foundation’s Mission and have one or more children with a diagnosis of Autism from a licensed professional or organization (ages infant - 18 years).

Since Grants are usually on behalf of affected families directly to the care providers themselves, we are most interested in working with businesses and/or professionals who have:

• Consistent and effective management
• Clear goals and objectives
• A demonstrated ability to respond to the needs of children with Autism in a manner that yields results
• Unless otherwise approved, can offer client families immediate cash-equivelent discounting of services corresponding to the amount of the Grant

The Eddie Guardado Foundation does not fund:

• Advertising or fundraising drives
• Partisan, political or denominational programs
