Foundation Grant Requirements & Rules
  • Grant projects must present an innovative, creative approach to an identified student need within the established Greenville ISD curriculum framework or be a student-based project.
  • Projects must be measurable, have an evaluation component and demonstrate potential for a measurable impact on student achievement. Grant proposals should support district or campus goals.
  • The best grant projects continue for years, so they should not include consumable items that require reordering each year, yearly subscriptions, or grants for incentives, rewards, assemblies, or programs.
  • Grant proposals may be submitted by any Greenville ISD employee or campus/department and must be approved by their principal or supervisor prior to submission.
  • Grant recipients must also share successful procedures with fellow staff and be willing to work with the Foundation in acknowledging support of Foundation donors.
  • Grant proposals will be considered according to all EEOC guidelines of non-discrimination.
  • Grant funds will be dispersed by the Foundation. Grant purchases will be made by GEEF.
  • Products purchased with grant funds become the property of the district and campus of the grant submission.
  • Grant proposals are evaluated by the Foundation Board of Directors and members of the Greenville ISD Administration; final approval will be made by the Foundation Board of Directors. The Foundation reserves the right to fund all or part of the grant.
  • Any money not used by November 1, 2025 or not used for the proposed project will return to foundation funds.
