Need a grant for your school?

I was recently sent this posting and think it may speak to some of you looking for funding for afterschool programs for your at-risk students. Happy grant writing!!

Do you need funding for an after-school program to help your most at-risk students be better prepared academically? Would $100,000 or more per year help?

The Maryland Department of ED recently released the RFP for its 21st Century Community Learning Centers afterschool grant program which provides funds for a variety of activities designed to extend learning opportunities through educational, literacy, and enrichment opportunities over 3-5 years.

And your school may be able to receive professional grant writing assistance for FREE.  Keep reading to learn more.

GrantsQuest is a national grant writing firm and we work with many international vendors who sponsor grantwriting on behalf of schools just like yours for similar grants across the country (Benchmark Education, BrainX, Corel Software, Curriculum Associates, and Encyclopedia Britannica are just a few).  Through our unique partnership program, you may be eligible to receive free grant writing for this grant as well as many others, and receive the most cutting edge and research-based products and services anywhere in the world.

To be eligible for the 21st Century grant, you must be an elementary, Middle/Jr. High, or high school serving any grades K-12 and have a Free/Reduced lunch count of 40% or more (bonus points awarded to schools designated in need of improvement under Title I).  If you meet the criteria and are interested in receiving free professional grant writing assistance immediately, simply log onto our website at http://www.grantsquest.com/services/client-vendor-match/school-vendor-match  and complete the School Profile Form.  It's pretty simple.  We match you up with our vendor partners who offer grant writing assistance that would help meet your needs and they may develop a partnership with you to provide the grant writing assistance on your behalf. 

But you need to move fast on this 21st CCLC grant as the deadline is April 4.  To speed up the process, simply send us an e-mail atinfo@grantsquest.com immediately to let us know you're interested and then you can fill out our web form in the next few days. To learn more about the 21st CCLC grant in particular, visit the program website athttp://www.marylandpublicschools.org/MSDE/programs/21centurycommunity/.

We look forward to the opportunity to help you serve your students better.
