ScholarShare can help schools with desperately needed funding. Every week, my kids come home from school with opportunities to participate in a variety of programs designed to compliment their education. From Spanish and music to theater and Girl Scouts, our school is known for its exceptional test scores, tech-based learning and well-rounded approach to education. We are fortunate to live in one of the best districts in Orange County, however, our school is still dependent on public funding to provide students with the best education. Thanks to ScholarShare, our school has been nominated to receive a ScholarDollars Grant to support current programs like Meet the Masters, Science Lab, and the Anaheim Ducks Physical Education Program.
The ScholarShare Scholar Dollars Grant Program
Funded by ScholarShare, California’s 529 college savings plan, this grant program seeks to help fund public school programs like music, tutoring, student counseling, science and technology. There are 20 grants available in varying amounts from $5,00o to $25,000 and the amount given is determined by the size of the school. Schools who receive Scholar Dollars Grants can use the money to purchase musical instruments, computers, library books, sports equipment and more.
