NEW: Student Engagement and Attendance Mini-grants
After surveying over 500 Muskegon County teachers, we’ve learned that chronic absenteeism is a major issue in our community’s schools. A special round of Teacher Mini-grants of up to $750* are available to support creative ideas designed to increase student engagement and attendance. Examples include, but are not limited to, magazine subscriptions, fidget items, headphones, teacher tutorials, and student incentives. Grant decisions will be made on a rolling basis. Applications will be accepted until Monday, February 1, at 5:00 p.m. Apply now via our Submittable service.
Committee Grantmaking
Grantmaking committees are comprised of community stakeholders – volunteers in our community whose personal passion align with the focus area. Grantmaking committees have specifically stated priorities and recommend grants from specific funds developed and reserved for that exclusive purpose. The deadline for Committee grants is February 25, 2021. Click here for information and click here to apply.
Community Empowerment Small Grants
Community Empowerment Small Grants are tools provided by the Community Foundation for Muskegon County to build a vibrant community with great opportunities for all. We are always looking for ways to build relationships with all groups, big or small, for everyone to see themselves in our work and for the community to know that we are a resource.
