Recognize An Outstanding Teacher

Franklin Mint Federal Credit Union Foundation in partnership with Delaware County Intermediate Unit (DCIU) is accepting nominations for the 2022 Excellence in Teaching Awards. The honor is bestowed upon 20 outstanding and innovative educators, who have made a positive impact through their work and dedication. Recipients of this award receive $1,000 towards classroom expenses and a commemorative keepsake. The recipient’s school also receives a $1,000 grant. A total of $40,000 will be awarded to schools and educators!
