AHEF Donors Fund $33,374 in Second Round of Grants for the 2024-25 School Year

ANOKA, MINN. – 

Donors to the Anoka-Hennepin Educational Foundation (AHEF) recently funded $33,374 in the second round of grant funds for school projects and students for the 2024-25 school year. These funds are in addition to the $30,889 in Spring grant awards, and $24,000 in perennial grants that AHEF funds each year, for an anticipated total of over $88,000 in funds awarded for the current school year. AHEF donors will also fund $20,000 in scholarships this Spring for students pursuing post-secondary education.

Through AHEF, donors funded the start of an Outdoor Adventures class at Coon Rapids High School, and a Kevlar canoe for the Champlin Park Outdoor Adventures classes. Other examples of donor funded grant projects include pedometers to increase student awareness and activity, bilingual books, and phonemic awareness tools for multilingual learners. A full list of the 33 grants awarded is below. 

“Our donors make these grants possible,” said DeGeest, “Thank you to everyone: teachers, administrators, staff, parents, and community partners, for making these experiences possible for our students.”

The next round of grants will open in December and will be for the 2025-2026 school year. For more information on AHEF grants go to www.ahef.us or email Theresa.degeest@ahschools.us.
