The types of organizations that award technology school grants are as
diverse as the types of projects that are funded with technology school
grants. The federal government, state, county and city governments, as
well as private and corporate foundations award technology school
grants. Over the past 10 years, more than 70
high-tech technology companies have created foundations that offer
technology school grants.
Technology
school grants can include curriculum grants, technology training
grants, professional development grants, equipment grants, grants for
hardware and software, telecommunications grants, and grants for
qualified personnel to administer technology grant projects.
Some
of the largest foundations that provide technology grants are the David
and Lucile Packard Foundation, SBC Foundation, Intel Foundation, the
Community Foundation of Silicon Valley, Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, W.
M. Keck Foundation, Merck Company Foundation, Henry Luce Foundation, and
the Shell Oil Company Foundation. Total giving by these foundations is
more than $654 million dollars, with the David and Lucile Packard
Foundation taking the lead at $277,891,647. In most cases, money has
been set aside from corporate profits to support technology giving. The
largest percentage of technology school grants are awarded to non-profit
organizations, health care agencies, colleges and universities, local
government agencies, tribal institutions, and schools. For profit
organizations are generally not eligible for any grants unless they are
conducting research or creating jobs.
U.S.
Government Grants has expertise in writing technology school grants.
Its founder and lead instructor, Beverly Santicola, has a track record
of success in developing technology grants for elementary-secondary
education, healthcare, science, economic development and
labor-management cooperation. With an average of one million dollars in grant awards each year, Santicola has authored technology school grants that have:
· Established community technology centers in schools.
· Increased interest and learning outcomes in science and citizenship.
· Increased learning outcomes in reading, writing and mathematics.
· Promoted labor-management cooperation.
· Encouraged economic growth.
· Advanced professional development.
· Increased access to healthcare.
· Facilitated early detection of breast cancer.
In
her grant writing workshops, Santicola shares the secrets to her
success and provides participants with samples of many of her
award-winning technology grant proposals. In
the workshops, she shares stories of unique and creative proposals that
generated over $1 million in technology school grants. With one project that taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students to build computers in less than 30 minutes, and also taught them to teach other 3rd, 4th, and 5th
grade students how to build computers, Santicola demonstrates how
technology can increase student learning outcomes by as much as 22% in
science in just two years, as well as increase learning outcomes in all
core curriculum. Students
receive workbooks that include a copy of the curriculum for this project
and also the process flow chart that was created by the 4th grade students.
U.S.G.G. workshops provide public
colleges & universities, K-12 schools, non profit organizations,
churches, fire and police departments, emergency medical service
agencies, cities and towns with practical tools and reliable resources
to apply for and receive technology school grants.
