The Edison Foundation's Classroom & Department Mini-Grant Program is designed to provide financial support for projects, programs and services not funded through the employees' regular departmental budgets. All full-time faculty and staff are eligible to apply for a mini-grant. To be considered, the scope of the request must support the mission of the College and directly impact Edison State students. A committee from The Edison Foundation Board of Directors and staff will choose grant recipients, allocating up to $500 for each proposal. The committee's goal is to award as many grants as possible to eligible faculty and/or staff. You can find more information via the link below.
