To All Full-time JSD Educators:
Jordan Education Foundation (JEF) announces that applications for the JEF 2017-18 Classroom Grants will be open on August 1, 2017. The Google Form Application will be listed on our website and available to access on August 1: www.jordaneducationfoundation.org.
APPLY EARLY, even though the application period will stay open through November 20, 2017.
Historically, over the past few years, the Gates Foundation and a couple of other major funding foundations (including Chevron that will match applications in September and October) will randomly pick a day to match donations. If your application is already listed on Donors Choose, then JEF can send in an amount to be matched and stretch the JEF dollars designated for Classroom Grants. Thus increasing the number of teachers receiving grants.
You increase your chances of being funded by applying early.
See the attachment for details or call us at the Foundation Office 801-567-8125 with questions. Thank you for being an educational professional in Jordan School District.
Steven Hall, Director
