RAGF Grants for Public School Teachers
Well-educated kids are the most important factor in the future success of our country and our world. That's a big responsibility for our teachers - especially since they are operating on ever-shrinking budgets!
Unfortunately, for the time being, we've put this part of our giving program on hold. But we know that so many worthwhile programs have been cut in recent years. So please contact us if you are a teacher and have a project in mind. We’d consider proposals for things such as field trips, art projects, instructional supplies, etc. and it would be a bonus if the proposal would include a group of classes. But please don’t limit your ideas to these!
Please do not hesitate to contact us with any ideas or questions! [email protected]

2017 Teacher Grants Awarded!
We are excited to announce the recipients of our 2017 Loup City Public School Teacher grants!
Heidi Krolikowski was given $500 for material to develop four Circle of Friends groups - a program which facilitates social skills development in special needs populations, especially important with the increase in children found to be on the autism spectrum.
And Jason Obermiller will receive $1000 to introduce drone technology to the students of his Wildlife, Life, Earth, and Physical Sciences classes. He will first obtain his professional drone license and then will use drone and video technology with his students to study environmental and wildlife changes in the community and to help with natural resources conservation.
We are happy to be able to help these motivated educators with their projects to improve the education of our students!
