The R.H. Center for Community Geography is now accepting applications to the Classroom Fund for Community Engagement. Grants of up to $1,000 will be considered, and a total of $1,500 will be awarded. The objective of these grants is to provide seed funding that helps faculty members engage their students directly with community-led projects that enhance students' learning experiences while also contributing to community goals and projects centered on human-environment issues. Priority is given to applicants who clearly articulate and demonstrate how their project or class is centered on principles of community engagement that value local knowledge and support community-led work to achieve positive community change.
