EEND 678 Artifact #2 - Grant Writing

The grant writing activity was a great experience.  I worked with my coworkers on this project, a teammate in 4th grade and a second grade teacher in my school.  This project was for alternative seating in our classrooms.  The process was very easy working with the donorschoose site.  It was easy to create an account and the site walks you through the steps one by one.  The hardest part was deciding what to order to keep our program around the $600 mark.  The part of the process I didn't like so much was how much money your donors give that go to administrative costs as well as funding other projects that don't get donors.  With that said, our project was funded in just two days and we have an additional $150 on board to start another project with!  We are thrilled to have these items to start the school year with and look forward to more collaboration in the future.
