Graduation Matters Montana is now accepting applications for the 2016 Challenge Fund. Submissions must be completed by March 4. It will provide more than $190,000 in competitive grants statewide.
State schools Superintendent Denise Juneau says the grants help strengthen communities.
“To bring their communities together, their small businesses, their non-profit organizations to really make a difference for students and make sure they're successful in the next stage of their life.”
The Fund will grant up to $10,000 to new and existing Graduation Matters communities.
