Grant proposals are now being accepted for the Cheryl Lyn Welter Family Charitable Foundation. The application deadline for the first round of 10 grants is January 31st.
Last year, multiple local schools agreed to partner with the organization to provide assistance to underprivileged children in grades K-12.
Individuals have the ability to request funds to help with things such as special projects, field trip fees, school supplies and other scholastic items. This fund was established in memory of Cheryl Welter, as a way to keep teachers from having to pay out of pocket to help less fortunate students.
