Your campers know The Build-A-Bear Workshop for their fun, interactive shopping experiences. But did you know that Build-A-Bear offers grants to organizations that support children?
The Build-A-Bear Workshop Foundation offers grants to 501(c)(3) organizations or registered Canadian charities in two areas that could be applicable to camps.
If you operate a special needs camp or a camp through a childhood disease research foundation, you could be eligible for a Children's Health & Wellness grant of $1,000 to $10,000. Their goal is to provide grants to help programs that are working hard to make the world a healthier and happier place for kids.
The Build-A-Bear Workshop Foundation also offers Literacy & Education Grants to summer reading programs, early childhood education programs and literacy programs for children with special needs. Many day camps & special needs programs can also qualify for grants of $1,000 to $10,000.
Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until October 28, 2011.
