SBCEF Grant Awards

Since 1994 the SBCEF has enhanced the education of over 3,000 Stoneham children annually in public and private schools and other organizations. It has awarded over $446,000, funding 451 grants for innovative programs and projects. Since the fall of 2006 Meld, Inc. had been providing some of the funding for our grant programs, but no longer can help and since 2013 the National Coalition for Education & Cultural Programs has also provided some of the funding for our grant programs. The Coalition has closed and no longer can help with the grants. We have received a three year grant from the Cummings Foundation which will help with funding grants. The Foundation’s slogan “IT TAKES AN ENTIRE VILLAGE TO EDUCATE A CHILD” continues to be realized.
