Description
The Cuyuna Lakes Education Foundation, a Partner Fund of the Initiative Foundation, offers grants to enhance the educational experiences of students in the Crosby-Ironton (ISD 182) public schools. The program is designed to support teacher-driven programs, activities, and special projects that provide innovative, immersive, and enriching opportunities across a wide range of disciplines. The foundation is managed by community volunteers and is separate from the school district, ensuring that funds are professionally stewarded for the long-term benefit of students. Grants are intended for projects and initiatives that would not otherwise be funded through regular school district resources.
