Dr. Judith B. Carlson Endowment Grant
The Dr. Judith B. Carlson Endowment was created in 2020 by Alpha Gamma chapter to honor a dedicated member and outstanding educator. Dr. Carlson has been a driving force in the establishment of the NC DKG Educational Foundation and has worked diligently to create endowments in DKG chapters throughout NC. As a physical education professor at Appalachian State University, her passion was preparing students for careers in teaching.
The Carlson grant may be awarded to individuals or for projects that ignite and intrigue the imagination of educators for inspiring enriched learning experiences. This grant supports opportunities for international travel and cultural immersion allowing educators to bring broader cultural perspectives to their classrooms. It also supports unique enrichment opportunities for educators to offer students through fieldtrips, outdoor education, camping, and other experiential and diverse learning experiences. One grant of up to $500 is available to active and retired educators in NC with priority given to those from Watauga and Avery Counties.
In any given funding cycle, an individual or group may not submit proposals for multiple grants funding the same project. A proposal by an individual for a project that has been awarded funding in a previous grant cycle may be considered for funding in subsequent grant cycles IF the request is not identical to the original project but rather enhances or builds on the original activity.
