Help -- We need reviewers!!!
Over 1200 elementary schools have applied for minigrants to implement the school
health index. I have sent out one request for reviewers, but we need MORE! We
are asking people to review 6 8-page applications between January
23 and February 23, 2006. We are extending the deadline to apply to be a
reviewer to December 15. Please consider volunteering yourself and please share
this opportunity widely. Reviewing grants is a great way to become a better
grant writer yourself!
Here are the details:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Foundation and CDC's
Division of Adolescent and School Health (DASH) are offering an opportunity for
elementary schools in selected states to apply for mini-grants to improve the
health of school children through physical activity and nutrition programs.
Made possible by a grant from Cargill and in partnership with the American
School Health Association (ASHA), these grants build upon the School Health
Index: A Self-Assessment and Planning Guide (SHI), www.cdc.gov/HealthyYouth/SHI
developed by CDC/DASH.
ASHA is seeking reviewers for the applications received from schools in response
to this funding opportunity. If you are willing to volunteer to read and score 3
to 6 short applications from schools that have identified projects to improve
nutrition or physical activity programming for children in grades 6 and under
through completion of the School Health Index, visit http://www.ashaweb.org/mini_grants.html
and follow the link to Information for Reviewers.
Thanks for your assistance in sharing this information.
