Target Field Trip Grants
Application cycle opens August 1, 2014 for the 2014-2015 school year
The Target Field Trip Grants program provides funds for K-12 field trips in order to give students throughout the country the opportunity to explore more of the world outside the classroom. For the 2014-2015 school year, grants of up to $700 each will be awarded to educators, teachers, principals, paraprofessionals, and classified staff who are employed by accredited K-12 public, private, or charter schools. Types of eligible trips include art, science, and cultural museum visits; community service and civic projects; career enrichment opportunities; and other events or activities away from the school facility. Funds may be used to cover trip-related costs such as transportation, ticket fees, food, resource materials, and supplies.
Please note that this grant is not being administered by the Henry Ford so inquiries and submissions need to go directly to Target. Visit the Target website at https://corporate.target.com/corporate-responsibility/grants/field-trip-grants to learn more about the program and submit your application.
