MLK Day Grants due in one week!

[Announcement from he-sl listserv]

Just a final reminder for your Friday! If you have questions, join us on Monday’s technical assistance call.

Campus Compact member institution staff, faculty, and students are eligible to apply for mini-grants of up to $3,000 to support MLK Day of Service projects that alleviate hunger and/or support veterans.

Those interested in applying are encouraged to register and attend our final technical assistance webinar.

A recording will be made available on the site along with other technical assistance resources.

Register for the Monday, September 26, 2016 webinar.

The MLK Day Community Partnership Project is led by Iowa Campus Compact, with support from New York, North Carolina, Mountain West, and Wisconsin Campus Compacts). It is funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service.

The goal is to mobilize college students, community members, and community organizations to observe MLK Day not as "day off," but a "day on." The project will provide mini grants to colleges around the nation for service projects that leverage volunteers. Projects will focus on food security (including meal packaging and food donations) and support for veterans.


Best,
Emily
