Your Donations at Work!
The WINGS Educational Foundation has been awarding Classroom Grants since 1992. Originally, grants were for $100 to assist teachers with enhancing instructional activities in their classrooms. Through donations and fundraising, WINGS has expanded the number of available grants and has increased the value of the grants. Jackie Krafft Early Bird Grants and the Larry Tobben Fine Arts Grant are awarded in the fall with a maximum of $500 awarded per grant. Spring Classroom Grants are awarded in April. The maximum amount awarded per grant is $5,000.00. To date, WINGS has awarded almost $900,000 in grants to School District of Washington classrooms.
