Mini Grants for Teachers is a program designed to provide funding for creative and effective teaching projects to educators in the Hamilton County public school system. Through generous funding from corporate sponsors like Chattem, Inc., the Junior League of Chattanooga, Inc. remains committed to helping teachers provide exciting, challenging and rewarding learning experiences for their students. Any elementary, middle or high school level teacher, or team of teachers, in the Hamilton County public school system is eligible to apply for a grant and participate by submitting his or her project ideas.

Applications for individual grants up to $750 are submitted to the Junior League in the Fall of each school year, and winners are selected by Thanksgiving of each school year. Those grant recipients complete their winning projects in the Spring and submit completion reports to the League, detailing the many successes and rewards of their projects to the students of Hamilton County.

The Junior League is proud to offer this grant program to the many wonderful teachers in the Chattanooga area who are making a difference in the lives of the children in this community. For more information contact the Junior League of Chattanooga.
