Grants

We are pleased to announce that
grants have been awarded
for the March 1, 2008 grant cycle!

For this, the Foundation's tenth grant cycle,
we received fifteen grant applications
totaling $44,582.

After careful consideration, GDEF was pleased to fund
eleven of these grants, totaling $24,012.

Two of these grants, totaling $4,750, were funded
due to the generosity of the Bruce J. Anderson Foundation,
which awarded GDEF a grant for the
Integration of the Arts Project.

The overwhelming interest from
GDRSD faculty & staff and
Groton & Dunstable community members,

which clearly shows the need for
supplemental funds to enhance our public schools,
continues to motivate the Foundation
in its fundraising efforts to benefit
public education in our District.

   GDEF is pleased to announce that it received a $6,000 grant from the Bruce J. Anderson Foundation,
a supporting organization of
the Boston Foundation, to implement
an Integration of the Arts project.

This exciting new endeavor allowed GDEF to increase enrichment opportunities, specifically in the area of arts education, for every child in our school district.

GDEF funded four Integration of the Arts programs as part of our fall 2007 grant cycle, and two as part of our spring 2008 cycle, exhausting the funds available for this project.  We appreciate the support of the Bruce J. Anderson Foundation, and hope to work with the Foundation again in the near future to secure funding for additional projects.

Visit our latest Grant Awards page for more details on these new learning opportunities for our children!
