The Qwest Foundation granted $1,000,000 to states in the Qwest® service territory. In each state, the company selected a nonprofit organization to run the mini-grant program and be the recipient of the funds. Partner agencies include Departments of Education, state education groups, or nonprofits with a strong profile in education and technology. Qwest works with each educational organization to determine the parameters of a grant program offered to teachers across the state. The grant may reward programs that use technology or the Internet in innovative ways to advance student achievement. Through this program, Qwest seeks to disburse the grant money directly to teachers and schools. The company seeks to create a statewide signature program, customized locally, that offers a clear opportunity to position Qwest as a strong and visible educational leader. In alignment with the goals of the Qwest Foundation, this program aims to improve K-12 education and continue to demonstrate Qwest’s solid commitment to supporting enhanced student learning and engagement by encouraging teachers to be innovative in their classrooms. Qwest and the selected organizations in each state are responsible for program design and execution. Grants are advertised statewide, and blue-ribbon panels from each state are assembled to both review the applications and award grants to those teachers who they feel most effectively use technology in the classroom. Qwest encourages teachers from across its region to submit an application for a mini-grant.
