Committee on Friends Education

What We Do

The Committee on Friends Education Granting Group makes grants in support of educational priorities. Some of these grants are made to PYM Member students in PYM-area Friends Schools; some grants are made to students in Small Friends Schools; some grants are made to PYM Members for post-secondary education; and other grants are made to teachers and Friends Schools directly.

Who We Are

Sydney Coffin, Grace Cooke, Nora Griffin-Snipes, Stephanie Judson, Lynn Oberfield (Clerk), Karyn Payton, Tom Peterson, Bob Sloan, Drew Smith, Luke Van Meter. Granting Committee Liaison: Shannon Isaacs
