Congratulations to the 2024-25 Creative Classroom Grant Winners!

CONGRATULATIONS 2023-24 Grant Winners - 

This was a competitive cycle with VAE receiving, 

72 grant applications, requesting over $98,000. 


Thank you to everyone who applied and to our wonderful team of grant reviewers. Every application was reviewed in a blind process, evaluators, and readers, did not have access to writer, school, district information, therefore grants were awarded only on their merit. 


VAE would like to recognize all of our loyal donors, who continue to support our Mission. Because of your generosity, VAE has provided additional educational tools and resources to local classrooms for 33 years! 


Special Thanks to: Blue Ridge Community College, NTELOS Wireless Foundation, Buzz Dawbarn Estate and the Community Foundation of Central Blue Ridge for their continued support and dedication to Valley Alliance for Education and our Creative Classroom Grant program.
