CALEDONIA EDUCATION FOUNDATION

Grant Process

​The Caledonia Education Foundation offers grants to promote exceptional education in the Caledonia Community Schools through programs and activities that are not underwritten by the school district. There are two types of grant funds available, those specifically funded by a donor usually to honor a loved one with specific criteria set by CEF and the donor, and general grants offered by the foundation with more general requirements.   We offer monthly small grants for $500 or less.  Small grants can be applied for by the 5th of each month during the school year.   The Unrestricted Grants and Barbara Gall Language Arts grants can be applied for 2 times a year. The deadlines for grant applications are November 1st and April 1st of each year.  

      Here is a peek at a grant.  Kettle Lake Elementary is using their Wobble Stools to help them learn!
