CHIPLEY, Fla.– Community South Credit Union has announced a new program to award classroom grants to local educators who want to launch unique projects or add technology beyond the normal curriculum.
The purpose of the all-new “Splash” Grant is to fund initiatives that will enhance the educational experience for students. This year, the credit union is giving out a total of $5,000 in grant funds to K-12 educators in Holmes, Jackson, Walton, and Washington counties in Florida.
“We hope educators will use these funds to make a SPLASH in their classroom by providing unique experiences that might not otherwise be possible due to budget constraints,” said Jan Page, CEO of Community South. “We hope these initiatives will instill a thirst for lifelong learning.”
The program is focused on the areas of STEAM: Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math.
