California Credit Union Looking to Fund Innovative Teacher Projects
Credit Union Encourages Los Angeles County Teachers to Apply for a Fall Project Grant
LOS ANGELES /PRNewswire/ — California Credit Union encourages Los Angeles County teachers who have an innovative class project idea to apply for a credit union grant through its Teacher Grant program.
The California Credit Union grant program is available to full-time teachers in Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, and Ventura counties, or credit union members teaching in California, looking to fund special learning opportunities for their students. The project should have clearly defined learning objectives tied to students’ academic needs, display creativity, and benefit a significant number of students. Ten California Credit Union grants of $500 each will be awarded to area teachers in early October in the fall program.
“We were founded 90 years ago by a Los Angeles teacher, and supporting our education community has always been an important part of our heritage. We’re excited to once again offer this grant program to help teachers light up their classrooms with an innovative learning opportunity for their students,” said California Credit Union President/CEO Steve O’Connell. “We encourage any teacher who has an exciting project idea to take just a few minutes to apply for one of our grants.”
Interested teachers can find more information and apply online here. The application deadline is September 15, 2023.
Since the creation of the program in 2012, California Credit Union has awarded $175,000 in teacher grants to benefit students across Southern California. The spring grant program funded a wide range of projects, including writing books about kindness, creating an art journaling project, opening a student Wellness Center, and starting a pickleball program, among others.
