The Grants Office helps PWCS staff identify potential funding sources to bring new projects and programs to our schools. Grants are a great way to bring additional funding to our schools and often don’t require a great deal of work.
The Grants Office helps staff:
- Find funding opportunities that best matches their project or idea
- Brainstorm project ideas
- Analyze the grant application and review requirements
- Review and edit the proposal before it is submitted
- Teach grant-writing skills
The Grants Office also maintains the PWCS Grant Opportunities Database, a searchable directory of grant announcements ranging from $250 to $10,000. Each entry includes a brief description of the funding opportunity, the deadline, and a link to the funder’s website for more information.
PWCS staff can visit the staff intranet for complete information and access to the database.
Fiscal Regulation 333-1 (PDF) requires that a Grants and Awards Internal Review Form and a final copy of every proposal be sent to the Grants Office prior to its submission to the funder.
