Past Grants

Youth Ambassador Grant

We are happy to announce the Youth Ambassadors grant to purchase a new drum set for the High School. The Youth Ambassadors worked over the 2019-2020 school year to raise funds and were diligently involved in the grant process for this donation. We are so proud of all their effort and are excited to see what they continue to do! Great work!
