SDEAf Grant to Institutions
As a decentralized post-secondary grant program, our objective is to empower colleges and universities with funding to provide financial assistance to students. SDEAF partners with the colleges and universities to administer the grant program to students, rather than SDEAF selecting individual student recipients. Once a college or university is approved for an SDEAF grant, the decision-making process is delegated to the individual school.
