Are you looking for ways to support teachers and students of
Henderson County Public Schools as they return to learn in a virtual setting? The Henderson County
Education Foundation (HCEF) is responding to the current climate and offering mini-grants ($500) to
support innovative and remote learning. This grant program will provide an opportunity for teachers to
enhance their virtual classrooms.
The community can support the grant initiative through sponsorships and/or donations. With a goal to
raise $20,000, HCEF will be able to offer at least 40 grants to Henderson County Public School teachers,
grade levels, and departments. Sponsorship levels include a Super Spring Sponsor ($3,000) that provides
at least six mini-grants for teachers or a Spring Sponsor ($1,000) that provides two mini-grants. Each
sponsorship will also include recognition benefits. General donations of any amount are always
welcome. Visit the HCEF website for a complete list of sponsorship details and how to give –
www.hcefnc.org/ourwork/springfund.
Henderson County Public School individual teachers, grade levels, teaching teams, and departments can
apply for grants up to $500. Innovative remote learning includes technology (hardware and software
applications), e-books, educational licenses or subscriptions, and manipulatives/kits for students. The
grants application is due by 11:59 PM August 19, 2020, and all recipients will be notified by August 31,
2020.
