Winter 2013 Grant Awards

The Hood River County Education Foundation has had another record year for grants!  We have recently completed our review of applications for our Winter 2013 grant cycle.  However, as in years past, we received more proposals for excellent ideas than we could fund and we faced some difficult decisions.  In the end, the Board has awarded 27 grants totaling $18,248.98.
