December was a busy month for the WGSD Foundation. Not only were we working on raising money for our Fall Campaign, FUNDing Innovation (more on that coming soon), we were also busy awarding money to FIVE different schools throughout the Webster Groves School District. Many teachers applied for Mini Grants for the month of December. We were so excited to deliver grant checks to Edgar Road School, Clark Elementary
and Bristol Elementary. In addition, each PTO from each school in the district has an opportunity to apply for a grant from the Foundation. Four schools submitted applications and all of them were awarded the money they requested. Below are pictures and a list of the Mini Grants and PTO Grants that were awarded for the month of December. Over $6,000 was distributed to teachers and PTOs. We could not be more thankful for the support of our generous donors that make this opportunity possible.
