Expanding Education Opportunities

Corn Belt Energy Corporation offers programs to enhance education opportunities within the communities we serve.

  • Education Grants - Four schools will be awarded $1,000 to be used for innovative programs that will enrich students’ education.

Education Grants

It’s widely recognized that our schools are limited financially in the programs they can offer. With that in mind, we are offering all schools within Corn Belt Energy’s service territory an opportunity to apply for a $1,000 education grant! Four schools will be selected based on the need and/or impact of the program on the school.

Eligibility: is limited to schools attended by sons and daughters of Corn Belt Energy’s members. Teachers and administrators of K-12 public and private schools may apply. Multiple projects within the same district can be combined to total $1,000. Preference will be given to projects and programs that enhance learning and are not currently being funded through the school district’s budget. Corn Belt Energy reserves the right to take pictures of the winners and print them in various publications. For application, click here. Applications and supporting documents must be received in Corn Belt Energy's office no later than March 31, 2008.

Share this information with your teachers or school officials today and encourage them to apply for Corn Belt Energy’s Education Grants!
