2006 Citigroup Grant

The Citigroup Foundation and the National Academy Foundation are pleased to announce the NAF Academy of Finance Local Grants Program for 2006.  As the most significant supporter of the Academy of Finance program, the Citigroup Foundation disbursed over $600,000 in local grants in 2005.  This year the Citigroup Foundation will award grants of up to $3,000 by a competitive application process to those programs that have a Citigroup employee on the advisory board and are in good standing with NAF.

The focus of the grants remains the improvement of the teaching and learning process for AOF students.  Please note the following important information:

1. There will be one deadline for all applications: March 1, 2006. All applications must be submitted by this date.

• Only complete applications will be reviewed and, if approved, funds will be dispersed  in Spring 2006.

2. The grant application must be completed online. An invitation to apply can be downloaded here. 

School districts with more than one AOF program must submit a joint application for the district. Districts may request up to $3,000 per participating school.

If you need clarification on any point, please e-mail Heather Zeman. 

We would like to thank you for the commitment and dedication you have shown as an AOF director and applaud your ongoing efforts to provide your students with an even higher quality program.
