Welcome to the Petre Foundation

The Petre Foundation was established in 1999 by Daniel and Carolyn Petre as a vehicle to provide donations to a range of worthy charities and causes.

The Petre Foundation does not accept unsolicited applications for funding. We undertake our own research into areas that are of significant interest and then look to fund effective organisations operating in those areas.
