Ali Gely, Middle Georgia State University grad student, utlized her ENGL 6200 Grant Writing class to help with a Holocaust education project at Kittatinny Regional High School in Hampton, N.J., where she teaches. Gely wrote a grant application as her MGA final class project and, in a result far more satisfying than simply getting a good grade, she secured a $10,000 grant.
Middle Georgia CEO featured the story on their website.
"In an email to MGA’s Monica Miller, Gely said her friend Mary Houghtaling 'poured a lot of energy into acquiring resources and donations for the center, as its funding falls outside of the responsibility or capability of our general budget. When I enrolled in your Grant Writing course, it couldn't have aligned better.'"
