Project/One-Time Funding

Enables administrators, teachers and school organizations to support a project or activity that aligns with the Foundation's mission when funding is not provided by the school district’s budget.

Requests may be submitted throughout the year by administrators and staff who work directly with students (teacher, principal, counselor, coach, librarian, etc.) and school sponsored organizations or clubs including PTOs and Booster Clubs.

All applicants are required to review the Project/One-Time Guidelines prior to submitting application.
