Nancy F. Beck Memorial Fund

Call for Grant Applications

The Nancy F. Beck Memorial Fund was established by her family in 1997 to continue Nancy’s dedicated service to children in the Brighton School District. Nancy was a dedicated wife, mother and member of the Brighton PTSA. For fifteen years, she was a tireless volunteer on behalf of children in the Brighton schools. The goal of the Nancy F. Beck Memorial Fund is to carry on Nancy’s good work by awarding annual grants for long-term, child-oriented, hands-on programs and equipment that benefit the greatest number of children. Teachers, administrators and parents may apply for these grants. The Brighton Central PTSA administers this fund.

• Please attach any additional material that might help the committee.
• Either mail to PTSA President-Elect, Johnita Anthony, or send by inter-school mail to Johnita Anthony, PTSA at Central Administration Office.

-Due Date: December 31, 2025

The Brighton PTSA Nancy F. Beck Memorial Fund Committee (see below) reviews all grant applications. The committee considers how many children will benefit from the grant, how long the grant will impact students, and how the grant would enrich the school program in ways not covered by the school budget. There is no requirement concerning the number of grants awarded each year, or in which schools the grants are awarded. Each school will not necessarily receive a grant each year.
