Details:
The Region One Athletic Fund recognizes that a complete education involves not only academic studies but the development of a healthy strong physical body along with the accompanying values of sportsmanship, team playing, endurance, ambition, discipline and fair play that athletics has to offer.
The Fund wants to ensure the highest level of physical achievement for the students of Region One to enhance their capacity to compete and excel in the sport or physical activity of their choice and cultivate competitive teams.
It is the intention of the Fund to support athletics in the broadest terms among all grades and ages within Region One. The Region One Athletic Fund will support projects that are over and above those normally funded by local, state and federal funding.
Funding Information
Grants awarded may range from $100 to $1,000 for the first several years as the fund builds its endowment.
Who Can Apply?
Students, teachers, administrators and community members for projects that enhance the physical and athletic experience of students in the Region One District of Connecticut.
Eligibility Criteria
- Applications are invited from individual students to participate in a project or program that will not only enhance his or her athletic skills but also help build a stronger athletic program for the school. For example, an applicant might request funds to participate in a soccer program that will give him or her skills that can be shared with other members of the school team. Individual awards typically will not exceed 25 percent of the total cost of the program. Grantees must be enrolled in the Region One School District at the time that the funded activity takes place.
- If an applicant submits more than one request for consideration and is awarded a grant, the committee will select only one request for funding. This will be the request that the committee feels most closely meets the award criteria and the award may not be substituted for another program without the consent of the committee.
