Connecting Women in Business Group Announces New Round of GO GRANTS
|
Connecting Women in Business (CWIB) group announces an important opportunity for girls grades 6 to 10 in the Char-Em ISD. We are accepting applications for Go Grants for activities for girls from January 1 to May 31, 2015.
Applications must be postmarked by December 1, 2014.
The impact of the Go Grants has been significant. They were first awarded in 2010, and since that time 93 girls have received over $36,000 in Go Grants. Go Grants monies are raised during an annual October silent auction luncheon help by the CWIB group.
GO Grants, or Girls Outreach Grants, will reach out to young girls in our area who have an idea and passion to try something new. Grants range from $100 to $500, and can be used as resources in any field of endeavor. The purpose of the grants is to provide small grants to girls in grades 6 to 10 in the Char-Em ISD service area of Charlevoix, Emmet and northern Antrim counties. These grants will allow the applicant to pursue a special interest gain or improve a skill, participate in an outdoor experience and more. We encourage applications that will be challenging to the applicant.
The ideal applicants are girls who have not received awards for outstanding achievements. CWIB is seeking girls who do not ordinarily apply for awards. We are looking for under-represented girls who need more support to realize their potential. Girls need to clearly state their financial need, as well as describe a special interest that will spark their imagination, creativity, or follow a dream that they may not imagine possible. For more information, call Lisa Hoyt 347-4150.
