Mini-Grants
Pfund Me Mini-Grants
Purpose
The Pflugerville Education Foundation (PEF) is offering all PfISD teachers the opportunity to apply for the Mini-Grants. The purpose of these grants is to enhance, promote and augment classroom instruction in areas not routinely allocated in regular budgetary funds or not eligible for reimbursement from other sources. You can use the money for things like classroom field trips, conference registration fees, professional development, equipment, etc. (Note: PEF Mini-Grant funds are not available for personnel costs, technology or personal travel expenses.)
Proposals
Program/project implementation is during the 2020-2021 school year. Funding is available through April 2020.
Submission Deadlines
The PEF Mini-grants for the 2020-21 School Year are now closed.
We encourage you to watch for the next round of mini-grants starting in September 2021.
Award of Funds
The Pflugerville Education Foundation offers Mini-Grants each month ranging from $100-$500 per grant. Teachers may apply more than once per year. Teachers who have received grants may reapply for different projects for consideration.
Thank you to all education staff applying for mini grants in the 2020-21 school year and congratulations to the winners. Grants were accepted from September through December 2020 and a total of $10,582 was awarded.
