2025 – 2026 Rockland Education Foundation Grant Information
Rockland Education Foundation Grant Application Now Available!
August 18, 2025
Dear Rockland Educators,
The Rockland Education Foundation is thrilled to announce that our 2025 grant applications are now live! You’ll find all the details and the application form on our website: RocklandEducationFoundation.org. Please use the Google Forms link provided there to submit your proposal.
Thanks to the continued generosity of our Century Club members (who pledge $100 annually), the thoughtful memorial donations made in honor of loved ones, and the overwhelming support for our June golf tournament, we’re pleased to share that we have a substantial amount of funding available this year!
We’re especially honored to offer two additional grants that celebrate bold and transformative ideas in memory of two beloved members of our organization:
- The $10,000 A. Scott MacKinlay Impact Grant
- The “WOW “Grant in Honor of Jack McGrath
These grants are designed to support a project that will have a broad and meaningful effect on students—whether in a single classroom, across a grade level, throughout a school or district-wide. It celebrates the legacy of Scott MacKinlay and Jack McGrath, two of REF’s founding members, and their vision for education.
If you’d like guidance while preparing your proposal or have questions, please reach out to Sue Lonergan, our educator liaison, at slonergan@rocklandschools.org. She’s happy to assist!
Deadline for submission: October 1, 2025. Please ensure your proposal is reviewed by your principal and submitted electronically by this date.
We can’t wait to see the creative and transformative ideas you bring forward. Thank you for all you do and enjoy the journey!
Warm regards,
The Rockland Education Foundation
