Description of Grants
Description of Grants
The North Carolina Delta Kappa Gamma Educational Foundation has identified four categories of grants to individuals and to Delta Kappa Gamma chapters submitting proposals dealing with the professional and personal growth of women educators and/or raising the bar on excellence in learning and literacy skills for children of all ages in North Carolina. These grants are diverse in nature with potential to meet a broad range of educational needs in classroom, school, and community settings to benefit all racial, ethnic, and age groups, members and non-members of Delta Kappa Gamma, male and female educators and students. Only proposals that meet all requirements of Section 501(c)(3) of the tax code will be considered.
Grants are awarded annually, with the timeline for applications and notification of recipients announced at the Foundation’s Annual Meeting.
1. Professional Development through Advanced Degree or Certification
Grants will support formal study leading to an advanced degree or certification.
2. Continuing Education for Professional/Personal Growth
These grants are awarded to individuals or to projects offering professional or personal growth for educators. These grants will be available to active or retired educators who give evidence of how the proposed experience will be used for educational purposes in a classroom, school, or community setting.
3. Research to Improve Education Through Administrative or Classroom Innovation
These grants encourage research for the development of improved organizational systems and instructional methodologies to achieve higher levels of excellence in education in classroom, school, and community settings.
4. Advancement of Learning and/or Literacy in a Classroom, School, or Community Setting
This project grant, which may be initiated by individual educators or Delta Kappa Gamma chapters, covers a broad range of possibilities, as it focuses directly on meeting an immediate need that will enhance learning or literacy for students in classroom, school, or community settings.
