PennACE Grants

Each year, the Pennsylvania Association of College and Employers (PennACE) seeks to fund collaborative projects that support its mission and purpose by awarding grants up to $1,000.00 to member colleges, universities and employers. PennACE will award up to $5,000.00 yearly. Unawarded grant money will be returned to the general fund. The Grants Committee will accept proposals beginning on September 1, 2011. Decisions will be made and awards will be presented on a rolling basis until all grant money has been awarded or until the February 24, 2012 deadline. Please contact the Grants Committe Chair, Tina Moyer, with any questions.
