WI FCCLA Foundation Chapter Mini-Grants

This is the sixth year the FCCLA Foundation is offering Chapter-mini grants. The last three years the focus was on the national program, Financial Fitness. CBM Credit/Education Foundation and WI FCCLA Foundation provided grant funds for this endeavor and the 2006-2007 State Executive Officer team agreed to focus on that national project for three years. Since the grant for the project Financial Fitness has ended, the grant focus for the upcoming chapter national program projects has changed.

The FCCLA Foundation is offering up to 5 chapter mini grants in the amount of $250.00 to help chapters defray expenses for a chapter project utilizing one of the following National Programs:

FACTS
Families First
Financial Fitness
Career Connections
Community Service
Stop the Violence
Student Body
