Discretionary Grant

Applications accepted September 1 through May 15

WCEF’s intends this grant to provide support for projects that unpredictably emerge during the year and were not conceivable at the time of our Annual Grant deadline.
Description: Unlike WCEF’s annual grant with one deadline, the Discretionary Grant is offered on a perpetual basis, beginning in September and ending on May 15, to help fund unforeseen projects or needs as they arise throughout the year. Discretionary Grants will tend to be smaller in scope and more immediate in nature. If this is a project within the school, this project should have been already denied funding by the district before WCEF will consider it. 
Grants: Up to $500          
Applications: Electronic submissions by the 30th of the month           
Notification Time: Within 30 days of submission            
Payment: Upon completion of the Grant Report
