The Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians Foundation is accepting grant applications for its Technology in Schools Program, which aims to support Santa Barbara County schools in enhancing classroom technology for students. The application period for the 2024-2025 school year is open until April 30, 2024, and interested parties must submit their applications through the website www.chumash.gov/foundation.
This program allows school administrators and faculty in Santa Barbara County to request funding for specific technology projects. Grants can be used for hardware purchases, infrastructure upgrades, integration of high-tech resources, and enrichment of the curriculum.
Since its inception in 2015, the Technology in Schools Program has awarded over $430,000 in grants to local schools. Recipients of the program’s latest grants for the 2023-2024 school year include various schools such as Cabrillo High School, Santa Ynez Valley Christian Academy, Carpinteria High School, Lompoc High School, Dunn School, and La Honda STEAM Academy.
The foundation for this program was laid in 2015 when proceeds from the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians’ charity golf tournament were used to provide technology grants to four local schools. This led to the establishment of the Technology in Schools Program. For more information and access to the application, individuals can visit www.chumash.gov/foundation or call 805-688-7997.
The Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians has a strong history of philanthropy, having donated over $30 million to various community groups, organizations, and schools both locally and nationwide.
