There were 23 applications for grants. SLUE-R members wanted to help everyone with their excellent projects but were limited by the available funds. The membership of SLUE-Retired includes educators and support staff members who remain involved in education. Proceeds from the sale of donated lunches at meetings, contributions from active and inactive members, and the annual silent auction provided funds for the grants. - Submitted by JoAnne Williams Posted August 7, 2007 |
