Foundation Grants

The ELCO Education Foundation Grant Program provides funding to teachers and staff to pursue the implementation of innovative programs and experiences that benefit students and/or enhance the school culture in the Eastern Lebanon County School District.

ELCO Foundation Grants, now awarded twice a year, are made possible by individual donations and corporate support. Requests are reviewed by a committee comprised of Foundation board members in conjunction with school administration.

Recent grants have included support for the Science Olympiad Team, physical education training, games for the high school library, MagnaTiles for math at the middle school, and more. Take a look at how your gifts are impacting our students!

Mrs. Thorley, HS Special Education Teacher

“The heat press has been such an addition to our business and the kids thoroughly enjoy the projects they get to work on using it. It has also helped our students work on their laundry skills with a meaningful and productive product to show for it!”

Mr. Thomas, HS Science Teacher

“Thanks to the generosity of the ELCO Foundation, students in the high school Science Olympiad Club built mousetrap vehicles, constructed a hydraulic fluid-controlled robot, and launched water-fueled rockets that they built using one-liter bottles.”
