Our Programs and Priorities
Innovative Educator Grants
The main priority of the CSDF is to support innovative educators by providing small grants to supplement classroom activities and initiatives across the school district of Cheltenham Township. 2015 Grant awards have been increased from $1000 to $1,500 per grant awarded.
Scholarships
Each year, the Foundation gives eight monetary scholarships of $500 to $1000 each to ten graduating seniors from Cheltenham High School moving on to an institution of higher education.
School Pavers
4X8 Commemorative Brick Paver placed at the building of your choice:
Cheltenham High School, Cedarbrook Middle School, Cheltenham Elementary, Myers Elementary, and Wyncote Elementary
Tribute Cards
For a donation, you will receive a Foundation tribute card to personalize and send along to your honoree. Tribute cards have been used for holiday gifts, end-of-year gifts, 'Thank you' card, congratulations, and memorial remembrances.
Community Engagement Events
The Foundation looks to bring the community together as supporters of our grant and scholarship goals. Annual events are designed to bring the community in and showcase the talented students and educators who have benefitted from the grant program. Our Food Truck Jamboree and Cheltenham Dines En Blanc events were huge hits their inaugural years and will continue to serve as annual events for the community.
Alumni Relations
The CSDF would like to begin uniting alumni of the district around the world. We will explore the availability of funds from alumni to support grants given within the district and scholarships programs for students.
