Applications Invited for Dominion Educational Partnership
Deadline: May 2, 2005

The Dominion Foundation (<a href="http://www.dom.com/">http://www.dom.com/</a>), the giving arm of energy producer Dominion, is currently accepting applications for its Educational Partnership grants.

The foundation will award approximately $200,000 in educational partnership grants in a five-state area (North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia). Accredited public and private elementary and secondary schools, public school divisions, institutions of higher education, state agencies, and 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations are invited to apply.

Dominion accepts grant applications for amounts up to $5,000 to encourage the development of new programs to strengthen math and science education in grades K-12. Successful grant proposals should present innovative and promising ideas, involve the teaching of math and/or science skills, reach a significant number of students, and demonstrate broad-based community support. Proposals must align with one of four targeted areas: parental involvement, closing the gap, environmental education, or mini grants (up to $1,000).

Complete program guidelines, geographic eligibility information, and an online application form are available at the Dominion Web site.
