Children's Services Committee Grant Opportunity 2011-2012
The Children’s Services Committee has allocated funds for the purpose of supporting
child-related service efforts. Grants will be awarded to support a specific activity,
school-wide initiative, training opportunity, or extracurricular endeavor for the
purpose of providing children’s services. This year, the Children’s Services Committee
has two $250 mini-grants in addition to our $500 grants. Projects must be implemented
during the current school year.
Past grants have been awarded to fund youth mentor programs, collaborative efforts between
staff and students, and violence prevention programs, among others.
Grant applicants MUST SPECIFY whether they are applying for the $250 mini-grant or the $500
full grant. Recipients of this year’s funding will be chosen based on:

Interested individuals need to submit a typed proposal of 350-500 words addressing
