About the Grant Program

Grant Process:

Applications are due February 1 of each calendar year.

After the cut-off date, the CVEF grant committee begins evaluation, and no additional submissions can be considered.

Evaluation of all grants is usually completed six weeks after the cutoff date.

All applicants are notified of the decision concerning their grant as promptly as possible.

Grants are presented at a Castro Valley Unified School District meeting in April.
