LOS ANGELES (CNS) – Southland teachers who have an innovative class project idea can apply for a grant of $500 from the California Credit Union Foundation, the organization announced today.
Ten grants of $500 will be awarded to area teachers in the fall. Eligible are full-time teachers in Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino and Ventura counties, or credit union members teaching in California, who are looking to fund special learning opportunities for their students.
The project should have clearly defined learning objectives tied to students’ academic needs, display creativity, and benefit a significant number of students.
“Supporting education is a key focus of our Foundation’s mission,” California Credit Union Foundation President Marvel Ford said. “Through our teacher grant program, we’re proud to help bring innovative classroom ideas to life — projects that spark learning, creativity and connection for students.
We invite local teachers to apply and share how we can help turn their great ideas into meaningful experiences for their students.”
The application deadline is Sept 29, and the application is available at ccu.com/teachergrant/.
