Announcing 2010-2011 Learn and Serve K-12: School-Based Federal Grant Request for Application (RFA)
The Department of Education is pleased to announce the availability of the Learn and Serve K-12 School-Based federal grant funding for the fiscal Year 2010-2011. The Learn and Serve America: K-12 School-Based Program is a component of the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993 and it provides federal funds through the Pennsylvania Department of Education to public schools and community based organizations for the development and/or expansion of local service learning programs.
The purpose of this Request-For-Application is to provide school districts, charter schools, career and technology schools, intermediate units and community based organizations with an opportunity to compete for monies for a service learning project that creates a partnership between a LEA/CBO and the diverse community that it serves. The grants will be made to implement a student service learning program. All applications are due by 4:00p.m. on Wednesday, December 15, 2010 at the Pennsylvania Department of Education, 5th floor, 333 Market Street, Harrisburg, PA 17126-0333.
