Project - Service to Others

Eric Simpson, Chair, Health Committee, (905) 274-8742


The Program

Project - Service to Others is a Provincial RTO/ERO program which provides grants to Districts for initiatives which support the concept of "Service to Others". The intent is to raise the profile of retired teachers by visibly demonstrating to active teachers and to the public-at-large that retired teachers care about their communities and about public education, and are willing to do something to help those who need assistance. These assistance projects could be in any form that supports the goals of the Project.

The Application Process

Members submit their proposed project to their District Executive using the appropriate Application Form.

The Application requires the approval and support of the District Executive.

At a meeting of the District Executive, the Executive will select one project for recommendation.
The District President and Secretary will sign the selected application and submit the Application to Provincial Office.
The completed application document must be received at the Provincial Office by March 1 to be considered by the Project - Service to Others Committee at its meeting in early spring.

Applications

Applications and further information are available through the RTO/ERO Provincial Office Web site

It is important that applications be submitted to the District 39 Executive no later than December 31.

Applications should highlight the involvement of RTO members in the project.

The maximum grant available is $4,000.
