Recipients of VCF/BARR Mini Grants in 2020-21
2
We have had several colleagues inquire about what sorts of ideas and projects have been funded. We haved decided against providing specific details of each of the awarded applications in order to grant some privacy and also to grant the flexaiblity intended in the grant. With that said, we have seen a range of ideas and projects. More than are listed here in this summary. Many schools are using the funding to provide basic wellness items such as, winter clothing, weather gear (e.g. umbrellas), and outdoor play and excercise equipment. Many schools have also been awarded mini grants to help with the development of outdoor learning spaces, greenhouses, and gardens. Other schools have been awarded mini grants to help support students have food security in the form of extended backpack programs, food gift cards, and healthy snacks. We have seen a strong need for social emotional support in form of classroom tools, school counselor related tools and supplies, take home wellness kits, art supplies, rearranging and constructing new wellness spaces, and direct mental health programming. In the area of access to learning we have had schools increase wifi access points, including outdoors, hotspot innovations, additional book purchases, more inclusive materials. We have also read and awarded some student/adult partnerships that have formed to respond to basic food, mental health, and access needs in a given school. We recognize that the need still far exceeds what these mini grants can respond to. We also recognize that there are deserving applications and schools that have not yet been awarded a mini-grant. Thank you for you understanding and patience as we now have 81 mini-grants awarded, from 251 applications for a total of $313,000 distributed. Thank you all for your ongoing dedication to the young people of Vermont. -
