    News Release Education Information Services 125 South Webster Street P.O. Box 7841 Madison, WI 53707-7841 (608) 266-3559 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DPI-NR 2017-31 Thursday, March 16, 2017 Contact: Tom McCarthy, DPI Communications Director, (608) 266-3559 125 teams receive grants for Robotics League participation MADISON — Robotics teams from 125 public, charter, and private schools as well as homeschool student groups are sharing $250,000 in grants to support their participation in Robotics League competition. Requests from eligible teams for the first-time grant program totaled $468,131, requiring a 53 percent proration of the grant. Teams eligible for grant awards are made up of high school students in grades nine through 12 that work with a mentor to design, construct, program, and operate a robot that will compete at a robotics event. Grant funds cover fees, required kits and supplies to participate in robotics competition, travel expenses for eligible team members, and a stipend for the team’s mentor. The grant support is intended to encourage more student interest in the STEM subjects: science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. “One of my recent school visits included an in-school robotics competition that showcased the excitement and engagement of kids who are pursuing a passion that this grant program fosters,” said State Superintendent Tony Evers. “Whether an afterschool robotics club, other activities, or the many career and technical education and classroom experiences that inspire students, it’s an amazing sight to have kids charging ahead with their learning.” Robotics League Participation Grants were enacted as part of Wisconsin Act 280 in March of 2016.

  • 2014 Report to the Community
    02 Greater Green Bay Community Foundation 2014 Annual Report leadership comments illuminating the needs of the community. Foundations have a long history, and the work of foundations grows and evolves as their local Community communities grow. Our Foundation has evolved from focusing on the efficiency of transactions to the effectiveness of our community impact through grant making and other philanthropic tools. In 1991, when the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation was formed, our message was that we offered an effective and efficient platform for donors to give to the causes they care about.This is similar to the message of the first Community Foundation that opened its doors in 1914. That foundation, the Cleveland (Ohio) Community Foundation, said its purpose was to provide a place where donors could come together and efficiently give to causes they care about. The origins of the Cleveland Community Foundation make this year, 2014, a centennial anniversary for the community foundation model. The Cleveland Community Foundation’s and the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation’s original purposes were remarkably similar. Both offered donors transaction effectiveness and efficiency. The work of community foundations, however, has moved from an emphasis on the efficiency of transactions to community impact.

The Greater Green Bay Community Foundation has continued to move the dynamics of community impact and strategy.
