AHEF Donors fund another $26,458 in Grants for the 2023-24 School Year

ANOKA, MINN. – 

Donors to the Anoka-Hennepin Educational Foundation (AHEF) recently funded $26,458 in the second round of grant funds for school projects and students for the 2023-24 school year. These funds are in addition to the $41,922 in Spring grant awards, and $24,000 in perennial grants that AHEF funds each year, for an anticipated total of over $93,000 in funds awarded for the current school year. AHEF donors will also fund $15,000 in scholarships this Spring for students pursuing post-secondary education.

Through AHEF, donors funded 3D printers and recording equipment for middle schools, and musical instruments for students in Adventures Plus (the district before and after school care program). Other examples of donor funded grant projects include a giant, outdoor chess set to get more students outside for recess and to provide opportunities for more kids to learn (from their peers) how to play chess. A full list of the 67 grants awarded is below. 

“Our donors make these grants possible,” said DeGeest, “Thank you to everyone: teachers, administrators, staff, parents, and community partners, for making these innovative experiences possible for our students.”

The next round of grants will open soon and will be for the 2024-2025 school year. For more information on AHEF grants go to www.ahef.us or email Theresa.degeest@ahschools.us.
