The Foundation’s Individual Grant Awards are made to residents of Shelter Island, generally students, who wish to attend an educational program. In addition, Institutional Grant Awards are made to institutions (e.g., The Shelter Island School, The Shelter Island Public Library, local youth groups) which offer educational programs that fit the guidelines of our mission.
