Greenville Federal Credit Union announced it will award 10, $500 grants to Greenville County Schools teachers in August. The grant program is designed to help teachers fund projects or needs within their classrooms for the 2023-24 school year.
The Teacher Grants application is currently open online and will close July 31, 2023. Grants will be announced and awarded the second week of August with checks mailed directly to the winners’ schools.
The Teacher Grants program was established as part of the launch of the credit union’s charitable foundation in November 2021. The Greenville Federal Credit Union Foundation exists to promote local prosperity by providing grants, educational scholarships, and other funding support for individuals and non-profit, community-based programs within Greenville County, SC, with a primary focus on youth and education. It relies on financial support from the credit union and through donations from members, business partners and the public. Funding is managed through a charitable donation account by the credit union’s philanthropic partner, Carolina’s Credit Union Foundation, a 501(c)(3), grant-making public foundation supported by the credit union system in the Carolinas.
