The Newspaper Association of America Foundation was established to advance informed and intelligent media use by all citizens, especially young people, and to encourage them to value the people’s right to know and their right to a free and unfettered press. The Foundation’s Student/Newspaper Partnership Grant Program provides support to collaborative proposals between middle and high schools and their local newspapers to start, relaunch, or revitalize student newspapers, whether online or in print. Schools are also encouraged to seek a university or a college as an additional partner. Applications from minority-majority, urban, and rural schools and their local newspapers are of special interest. Each partnership may receive up to $5,000 in Year One, plus an additional $2,500 in Year Two. Applications must be submitted by April 15, 2009. Visit the Foundation’s website to review the funding guidelines. Please visit website for more details. http://www.naafoundation.org/Home/NAAFoundation/ScholasticPress/PartnershipGrants.aspx
