Just wondering if anyone has received notification from the Committee/AAW if they had been approved (or not) for an Educational Opportunity Grant..... applicants are supposed to hear by March 1st. Getting close, given today is the 27th of February!

For those that have received one of these grants in the past, are applicants notified by e-mail, or in a letter sent via postal mail?

Curious....

I recieved a grant little over one year ago for my High School Shop. I received the notification by mail. Not sure what date it was on. It helped us to buy some much needed turning supplies for out program.

Rob,

We got ours last year and I received notification by mail on Feb 27th. Watch the mailbox.
 
Rob, as the EOG Committee Chair, I'm sorry to announce that circumstances this year have delayed the review process of the EOG applications. I hope to mail out letters of notification before March 15th (perhaps sooner). I realize that this is two weeks later than the website-published date and I apologize for the delay.
 
Thanks For the update Malcolm

Thanks for the update Malcomb, I will let our club know, had a couple of people ask have we heard anything yet.
Thank you for all that you and the other board members and committee members do for the AAW. Your leadership is appreciated.
