The Grant Award Program for MEOPP Trio

David Waldherr, founder of Cambridge Educational Services announced a $2,500 Partners in Progress Grant Award for NEOA members just before the 44th Annual MEAEOPP TRIO CONFERENCE.

We are proud to announce that the Cambridge Award Program has exceeded $10 million in assistance to deserving programs including over $5,000,000 to TRIO. To view the press release, click here.
