Grant Opportunities
The Wallingford Education Foundation (WEF) is committed to improving opportunities for students and teachers one grant at a time. Over $200,000 has been raised and awarded for this purpose. Each March, educators are encouraged to apply for one of two grants: the Educational Impact Grant or the Professional Development Grant.
