The National Association of Episcopal Schools (NAES) is pleased to announce the recipients of its Outreach Fund Grants for the 2012 cycle.
Each school year NAES distributes 10% of its budgeted Annual Fund goal (but not less than $12,000) as Outreach Fund Grants to members, associate members, and regional, state, or diocesan Episcopal schools organizations. The grants support projects commensurate with the mission and philosophy of the association.
“We are delighted to be able to support the mission and ministry of our member schools in this way,” said the Rev. Daniel R. Heischman, D.D., executive director of NAES. He went on to say that “our Annual Fund donors can be proud that a portion of their gifts help to support directly the educational, moral, ethical, and spiritual development of Episcopal school students.”
