So You Want to Write A Grant! (Grant Writing for Educators)
I have written two successful grants in the last two years so I thought I'd share all the "how to" resources I found. One of the grants I wrote was for a classroom lending library. Here is a pamphlet I wrote for my parents full of emergent reading strategies.
Start here....places
with money Places to start that aren't on the web.. Start with local stores (Walmart, Target, Mervyns and (Chevron/Texaco) a few other give out local grants in small amounts. (under $1000.) You have to go into your store and speak with the manager). Talk to the parents of your students. They might work for a big business that gives grants that make connections to themselves. NEA Foundation for Improvement of Education The Hewett Foundation (makes many grants each year) Grants and Funding-Sign up on a mail list- This one is for California (try your own deptarment of education) Kathy Schrock's Grants for Educators Martha Holden Jennings Foundation
