The PSF International Educational Travel Grant supports CHCCS teachers who want to strengthen their language skills, deepen their understanding of global issues and cultures, or participate in curriculum-aligned professional development. These experiences should contribute to more engaging, globally informed learning for CHCCS students.
PSF can award only two grants of up to $1,000 each per year. Due to limited funding, a teacher may receive an International Educational Travel Grant only once during their CHCCS teaching career.
Travel must have a clear educational or professional-learning purpose. Personal or recreational travel is not eligible, even if the applicant plans to incorporate aspects of the trip into classroom instruction.
Preference will be given to teachers participating in structured education programs, professional learning experiences, or educator-focused travel opportunities, such as Go Global NC or similar programs.
Recipients must commit to teaching in CHCCS for at least one year after grant funds are used. Because funding is limited, applying during the Fall grant cycle offers the best opportunity to receive an award.
