The members of the Bayou Community Foundation are doing this by starting the Bayou Recovery Fund.

By starting this initiative now, the organization can financially support more immediate relief if and when a storm or disaster hits the bayou region.

“The Bayou Recovery Fund will be our bayou region’s ‘bucket’ to receive aid from people around the country and the world, and to distribute that aid to our own local nonprofits providing vital relief and recovery services specifically to our local communities,” Bayou Community Foundation Chairman Stephen Peltier said.

In the event of a disaster, the Bayou Community Foundation would partner with the Bayou Area Regional Recovery group to connect with groups that are involved with the recovery process.

“We were delighted that a group like that was in existence because that will help us know what kind of agencies will be there to help our residences,” Bayou Community Foundation Coordinator Jennifer Armand said. “Once the recovery process starts I’m sure there will be a lot more organizations involved in helping our community, so I’m sure we will grant money out to other groups too.”

The foundation, which has a variety of programs and grants to support local nonprofits, was largely started because of past storms and disasters.

“In the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, Gustav and Ike, and the 2010 oil spill, our bayou region lost out on what could have been substantial private aid donations because we didn’t have a community foundation to receive and grant out those funds,” Peltier said.

New Norcross fund would direct millions to Camden’s R’enaissance’ schools

The local fund is being established by the nonprofit Charter School Growth Fund, a national venture capital fund that invests in charter schools.

Hybrids of public and charter schools, Renaissance schools are publicly funded but privately operated.

The “Camden Facility Fund” will support the expansion of Camden’s Renaissance schools, which are operated by KIPP, Mastery, and Uncommon Schools.

Since the first school was established in Camden, a KIPP school that bears the Norcross name and opened in 2014, eight others have followed.

Christie, of promoting Renaissance schools over fighting for long-overdue improvements to traditional public schools.

The state-run Schools Development Authority is responsible for making repairs to schools in the state’s poorest districts, but the work is often delayed. Lanning Square residents waited for more than a decade for a new neighborhood school, but after Renaissance schools were approved, the state-of-the-art KIPP Cooper Norcross Academy building went up in less than two years.

Many parents whose children attend the new Renaissance schools are happy with their children’s experiences, but critics say the schools siphon students from already struggling traditional public schools.

Mobile lab stations will soon slide into Pardeeville Area School District classrooms thanks to a $25,000 grant courtesy of Americaas Farmers Grow Rural Education program, sponsored by Monsanto.

Pardeeville was one of only two districts in Wisconsin to receive the largest prize from Monsantoas GRE program, which awards education grants of $10,000 and $25,000 to districts across the U.S., including 10 in Wisconsin this year.

Pardeeville will celebrate its selection during halftime of Fridayas home football game at approximately 8 p.m.

School districts are nominated for the grant by local farmers. aTo have them for this fall, to already be able to start using them, itas just amazing.a

Monsantoas GRE program started in 2011 and has since awarded schools more than $11 million, according to Heather Wolfe, customer advocacy manager with GRE.

aThe reason the program is so important to us is we know all school districts out there are looking for money,a Wolfe said, aespecially to help with their math and science curriculum.a

Pardeeville will use to grant to acquire five lab stations on wheels a 5-foot long black lab counters equipped with sinks, mirrors and whiteboards for notes.

aTheyave always been big supporters of this school district a (they) have helped with numerous projects over the last 20 years.a

aThe big thing,a Seichter said, ais itas a great opportunity for students in smaller schools, to gain equipment we otherwise wouldnat be able to afford.a

Wolfe said GRE is built in such a way that ensures the grant money is well-spent, noting how a farmer review panel looks at all the applications and talks to local farmers prior to making its selections.

aWe encourage school districts to personalize their grant applications a to be very creative, that we can be sure weare helping fund the right things based on what the faculty and administration think.a

Seichter said the lab stations ultimately give her more flexibility in teaching, allowing her to move the stations in and out as needed, a change that cannot be understated since she often needed ato borrow another room.a

aThis is for more experiments,a she explained.
