Each year, Mountain America awards 10 grants of up to $2,000 each for K-12 classroom learning projects. To be eligible, the receiving schools be located within the credit union’s six-state footprint that includes Arizona. Applicants do not have to be members to apply.
Since 2016, Mountain America has awarded more than 60 grants to teachers and school leaders to support classroom learning. Last year, Mountain America Educator Grants funded a variety of projects, from STEM bins with ready-to-use supplies to books, budgeting, and meal-planning.
