Technology Grants For Schools, Education, Teachers, Information Technology & Sample Grants.
The federal government, state, county and city governments, as well as private and corporate foundations all award technology grants. The types of organizations that award technology grants are as diverse as the types of projects that are funded with technology grants. Some of the largest foundations that provide technology grants are the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, the Community Foundation of Silicon Valley, Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, W. M. Keck Foundation, SBC Foundation, Merck Company Foundation, Intel 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. The largest percentage of technology 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 technology grants unless they are conducting research or creating jobs.
U.S. Government Grants is experienced in writing technology grants. Its founder and lead instructor, Beverly Santicola, has a track record of success in writing 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 grants that have:
• Increased learning outcomes in reading, writing and mathematics.
• Increased interest and learning outcomes in science and citizenship.
• Promoted labor-management cooperation.
• Encouraged economic growth.
• Advanced professional development.
• Established community technology centers.
• Increased access to healthcare.
• Facilitated early detection of breast cancer.
In her grant writing workshops, Santicola shares the secrets to her success and provides students 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 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.
Santicola has led projects that have received local, state and national recognition for excellence and was even awarded a $375,000 grant to produce a multi-media documentary of one very successful elementary school project in a rural community of Ohio.
