Lasting Impact

The Jerry Fund supports public education in Grades K-12 in Atlantic and Cape May Counties in New Jersey, through grants to school districts for lasting projects and programs in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Agriculture Technology, and Ecology.

Grants vary from $5000 to $15,000. Multiple grants, as well as microgrants, may be made in any calendar year. Preference is given to programs that

• Emphasize hands-on learning and outdoor activities,

• Impact all classes in a grade,

• Will be renewed in subsequent years, and/or

• Offer multi-year experiences.

Decisions on grants are made by the members of the Jerry Fund Evaluation Committee at their sole discretion.
