Community Development & Education

The Golden LEAF Foundation has made numerous grants to support projects that may be outside the clearly defined categories of job creation, agriculture, and workforce training, but which still help communities to overcome barriers to economic progress or enhance educational opportunities.

Community assistance and education grants are awarded to communities with clearly defined unmet needs.

In the past, we have funded projects that focus on education and other opportunities that support and develop economic strength in tobacco-dependent, economically distressed and/or rural communities.

Examples of projects funded in this area includes scholarships, teacher training, community collaboration and capacity building, and educational technology.
