U.S. Department of Ed: Together for Tomorrow

To advance community partnerships and citizen service that will support school improvement, the U.S. Department of Education, working with the White House Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships and the Corporation for National and Community Service, has launched Together for Tomorrow. Through this effort, they are committed to changing the relationship between schools and community partners, both faith-based and secular, and helping those partners and stakeholders move from education outsiders to education insiders. The initiative also promotes a community culture where education improvement is viewed as everyone’s responsibility. Maximum award: an invitation for up to two representatives from the organization to attend a Together for Tomorrow-related event in Washington, D.C. with the White House, the U.S. Department of Education, and the Corporation for National and Community Service; inclusion in the Together for Tomorrow online learning network; national recognition. Eligibility: nonprofit organizations, schools, school districts, or institutions of higher education; other entities, including businesses and units of government, are encouraged to partner with eligible applicants on Together for Tomorrow Challenge submissions. Deadline: June 29, 2012.
