Grant Opportunities

Funds for School Gardens
We are pleased to announce a new garden grant opportunity for school and early care and education sites:

The Southeast Michigan School Garden Mini-grant program is now accepting applications for the 2019 grant year.

With funding from the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__cfsem.org_&d=DwMGaQ&c=nE__W8dFE-shTxStwXtp0A&r=FNsvNLBt1QD8axbi1zMa2NaGAmlhICZ9u_647TWjOSw&m=nLXE7Phc-4wycB6H5o963eNOAm0jMjCuGTygxLSFQv4&s=vp-DLSgKc4YzMqiTHIyajHyR_vu1SRK01UKSb3rGEcE&e=>, Michigan State University Extension will award approximately 20 grants for schools or early care and education sites that are planning or implementing school garden programming. Grant awards will range from $500 - $1,500. In addition to funding, grantees will receive technical assistance, training and connection to a network of peers.

The grant year is from April 8th, 2019 – April 7th, 2020.

The Southeast Michigan School Garden Mini-grant program offers planning and implementation grants to schools or early care and education sites located in Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties. The application must be submitted by an employee of the school or ECE site affiliated with the garden.

Note: For schools located in Detroit, we are partnering with local organizations which currently provide support to school gardens, including the Detroit Public School Community District’s Office of Nutrition and Keep Growing Detroit to avoid duplicative efforts and maximize resources available to schools. We encourage schools to connect with these organizations (links below) and consider the resources offered before applying for this grant. We hope this grant will offer opportunities to complement these resources and contribute to sustainability of the network of resources available in the City.

  *   Detroit Public School Community District’s Office of Nutrition<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.detroitk12.org_Page_7168&d=DwMGaQ&c=nE__W8dFE-shTxStwXtp0A&r=FNsvNLBt1QD8axbi1zMa2NaGAmlhICZ9u_647TWjOSw&m=nLXE7Phc-4wycB6H5o963eNOAm0jMjCuGTygxLSFQv4&s=kOard75YCxgN2u-cHAt6LoXSBQdlKBXGAfQn1q9O0JI&e=>

Planning grants help schools and early care and education sites that are in the beginning phases of creating a school garden. Planning grantees will create a school garden action plan and form a school garden team by the end of the grant period.

Implementation grants help schools and early care and education sites that are ready to establish a school garden or will expand their school garden program. Expansion can include expanding the physical garden, curriculum implemented, students reached or other program additions. Having a school garden team is a prerequisite to apply for an implementation grant. Implementation grantees will create a school garden sustainability plan to maintain the garden and activities beyond the grant period.

Please visit the Southeast Michigan School Garden Mini-grant page for more details regarding the grant program, eligibility, and requirements.

Who We Are
In order to successfully complete your term of service, you must, at a minimum, serve 1,700 allowable hours between August 1, 2019 and July 15, 2020.

FoodCorps is a nationwide team of AmeriCorps leaders that connects kids to real food and helps them grow up healthy. We do that by placing motivated leaders in limited-resource communities for a year of public service. Serving under the direction of local partner organizations, our service members focus on three areas of service:
·      Hands-on learning: students grow, cook, and taste new foods, which builds their skills and changes food preferences
·      Healthy school meals: the cafeteria experience steers students towards the healthiest options and gets them excited to try new healthy foods
·      Schoolwide culture of health: as a whole, the school community and environment – from hallways to classrooms to cafeteria to grounds – celebrates healthy food. We measure our success in terms of changes in children, schools, and systems.
What We’re Looking For
•        Passion for building a healthier future for schoolchildren
•        Commitment to working hard in order to make a difference
•        Demonstrated leadership ability
•        Motivation to serve full-time in a limited resource community
•        Perseverance in the face of challenges and creativity in finding solutions
•        Respect for diversity of opinion, experience, and background
•        Experience working in or studying food systems, agriculture, public health, education, community organizing, or public service
•        Experience working or volunteering in education, youth development, or other teaching settings
•        Knowledge of the culture, history, and/or language of the communities we serve
•        Desire to gain hands-on experience for your career
•        Demonstrated ability or dedication to performing the activities listed below

To be considered for a FoodCorps service member position, you must:
•        Be 18 years or older by the start of your service term
•        Be a legal, permanent resident of the United States
•        Hold a high school diploma, GED or equivalent
What You’ll Do
Service members work with schools, service site organizations and local communities to build healthy school food environments. They do this in a variety of ways:

  *   Service members focus on teaching children in grades K-8 about food and nutrition in the classroom by developing and teaching lesson plans, integrating activities into subjects such as math, science and history, working with teachers and school administrators to increase food and nutrition education in curricula, and more.
  *   Service members grow healthy food with students, teachers, and community members in school and community gardens, dynamic educational settings where kids can get their hands dirty and experience what they’re learning first-hand. While some service members expand/maintain already-existing school gardens, greenhouses, and hoop houses, others work to establish new gardens. Service members develop garden sustainability plans and recruit community volunteers to ensure that the projects they start last into the future.
  *   Service members impact what's for lunch by sourcing food from local farms for cafeterias, promoting local foods through cafeteria taste tests, working with school food directors and staff to integrate healthier foods into breakfast, lunch and snack programs, and more.
  *   Service members help build schoolwide cultures of health by working closely with teachers and school administrators, recruiting and training volunteers, organizing committees and running meetings, talking to press and public officials.
  *   Service members spend time learning and participating in trainings, raising money to help support the local projects, and helping FoodCorps and schools assess the impact they are having.
What You’ll Gain
·      $18,250 living stipend paid out in biweekly increments over your 11-month term
·      $6,095 AmeriCorps Segal education award upon successful completion of your term of service, which can be used for additional schooling or to pay off student loans
·      Student loan deferral or forbearance upon approval from your lender
·      Health insurance if you aren't already covered
·      If you have children, you might be eligible for childcare reimbursements
·      Numerous training and professional development opportunities
·      The experience of a lifetime!
