A generous donor makes the You & Me Community Grant Program possible. This donation of $100,000 over the next 10 years allowed AEF to establish a grant fund that will promote learning and community service at the same time. The You & Me Community Grant was born from this idea!
AEF has established an application process and will evaluate project proposals each year. Projects may be one-time events, year-long, or multi-year. What matters is that the project is educational and benefits the Arcadia community.
