Grant Forms

Grant Forms

The 2020-21 Grant Criteria are different than years past.  We have simplified the application, shifted to an open submission process and will review and make decisions on a monthly basis through April 01, 2021 or until funding has been exhausted; whichever occurs first . We ask that you submit your LEAF Grant application online (no paper submissions will be accepted this year).  Applications will be approved on a first-come, first-served basis until we have reached the funding budget limit established for 2020-2021.

The foundation trustees will review the information you provide to determine the eligibility of your project within the guiding principles of the foundation. We understand the unique situation our educators are in this year and will consider applications for programs and resources that will help you and your students during these extraordinary circumstances.   

In years past, we have expected that awardees meet with a LEAF Board member at some point during the school year to provide an evaluation of your program, and prepare a formal report to the board on the outcome of your program. This year, we ask that you consider following up with a LEAF trustee via email with pictures and details we can share on social media.  We will not be asking for a formal presentation and report.  

All applicants will receive a confirmation email that we received your grant request.  Our goal is to review and make decisions on a monthly basis beginning December 15, 2020. However, this could fluctuate depending on the number of applications we receive and on the availability of the LEAF board. 

As you know, LEAF is supported by donations. To that end, please seek to share the exciting things that happen in the classroom when the grant is used. This can be done through school and local papers, newsletters and social media, as well as by word of mouth. In that way, we hope to encourage potential donors to become part of our very special program.

Grant Application - Please fill this out to the best of your ability.  As stated above, we are reviewing any and all requests made this year, on a monthly basis.  If you need it, please ask.
