CHICAGO GREEKTOWN EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION 2024 GRANT APPLICATION

Grant Funding

The Chicago Greektown Educational Foundation is accepting applications for grants to eligible Greek language schools for calendar year 2024.

Grants can be used for a variety of projects and materials including, but not limited to, subscriptions for Ellinopoula Greek language software, books, software, audio-visual equipment, and classroom equipment (i.e., desks, chairs, dividers, office equipment). Funds must be used within one year of the application deadline.

Available Awards

The amount of the grants awarded vary due to the number of application submissions, as well as the availability of funds from the Chicago Greektown Educational Foundation’s fundraising efforts.

Due to the highly competitive nature of the grant requests, we can only provide funds to a fraction of those who apply. If you would like to donate funds so that we can provide more awards, please do so on website at www.greektowneducation.com/donations/cgef/
