The goal of the Foundation is to enhance the educational quality of our students and improve the overall community. The Foundation oversees the financial aspect of the various scholarships that are presented to our students each year. The three largest awards are the Wolf, Trigiani and Portland scholarships. Through the Foundation’s fundraising efforts and investment success, the Enrichment Grant Program formerly known as The Teacher Grant Program continues to be available. The Foundation is now encouraging students and school clubs to create an idea for a grant and then work with a teacher/advisor to complete the application
The Enrichment Grant program is intended to cover initiatives and programs that are outside of the typical school budget and will not cover such things as: food and/or drink, prizes and gifts, capital improvements, advisory fees or salaries. The program will now cover transportation costs for an educational program. Each year, The Bangor Area School District Educational Foundation, Inc. will allocate a limited sum of money for The Enrichment Grant Program. Requests will be reviewed on a first come, first serve basis and prioritized with other funding requests that will be reviewed by the Foundation’s Enrichment Grant Committee and voted on by the entire board.
The individual amounts for each grant for the academic year will not exceed $2,500.00 which is an increase over the original limit of $1,000. The Foundation’s Enrichment Grant Committee reserves the right to allocate additional funds per grant at its sole discretion.
