RFP: Strategic Philanthropy course seeks projects to help at-risk kids, guardians

Now in its second year, UW-Green Bay’s Strategic Philanthropy course once again is teaching through giving — and looking to the community for ideas on how it can help. The course, taught by Assistant Prof. Lora Warner, Public and Environmental Affairs, is looking to give away $10,000 it received from the nationwide Learning by Giving Foundation. Students last week issued a Request for Proposals for projects that address the early development of at-risk children (ages birth to 5) or their guardians.

Proposals are due by 5 p.m. Friday, April 4; details and the RFP itself are available at http://blog.uwgb.edu/pea/. The class will announce the funding recipient at 5 p.m. Thursday, May 8.
