Hi all,

 

I wanted to let you know that Youth Service America has extended the
deadline for the State Farm Good Neighbor Service-Learning Grants. These
are $1000 grants for teachers and service-learning coordinators in
schools as well as those who run service-learning programs in
afterschool or community-based organizations. Approximately 100 grants
will be awarded. More information follows.

 

Best,

Mike

 

With generous support from the State Farm Companies Foundation, Youth
Service America is offering the annual State Farm Good Neighbor
Service-Learning Grant for youth-led community improvement projects
across the United States and Canada (Alberta, Ontario, and New Brunswick
provinces only). These grants of up to $1,000 support teachers and
service-learning coordinators in engaging students (ages 5-25) to
implement service-learning projects for Global Youth Service Day, April
24-26, 2009. We encourage semester-long projects that are launched on
Martin Luther King Day on January 19, 2009 and extend through Global
Youth Service Day. To learn more, download our NEW electronic
