About the Foundation

Alderman Newton’s Education Foundation is managed by a Board of Trustees.  The Board of Trustees has an Education Committee, which reads all the applications for grant aid and makes recommendations to the Board.  The Education Committee normally meets once a month.  We advise you to submit your application 2-3 months in advance of your activity or course start date.
