Mini Grant Application

GUIDELINES:
• Foundation awards are intended to provide seed money for new innovative projects.
• Mini Grants are awarded in amounts up to $1,000. Requests for larger projects should be directed to the foundation’s Educational Projects and Grants Committee.
• Funds must be used within the school year the grant is awarded.
• The application must be co-signed by the applicant’s principal.
• The application must include an estimated budget indicating how the money will be spent
• Recipient will send a final report on the outcome of the funded projects to the committee within a week of the end of the school year. This report must include pictures/documentation of expenditures.
• Mini-grants will be awarded the week following the CCSF monthly board meeting (1st Thursday of the month) at which it is approved.

In an effort to be faithful stewards of the money donated to the foundation, the Scholarship and Grants Committee requires a written report from any teacher who receives a grant. The report is to provide sufficient information to show the grant money was used for the stated purposes.

Please include photographs along with a brief evaluation of the program and a financialstatement showing how the funds were used. This report will be due the last full week of classesof the school year in which the grant is awarded.
Another aspect requiring the recipient’s agreement is in the area of publicity. After you have implemented the new program, the committee will want to inform the community about your program. It is hoped that such publicity will help further the goals of the foundation and provide support for your work.
Disbursement of the grant money is contingent upon the grantee agreeing to fulfill these requirements and returning this form with their application.
