Bullying Prevention Training 

Overview of Bullying Prevention Grant

A learning environment that is safe and respectful is essential for the pupils enrolled in Nevada schools.

School districts and schools must train staff and students in the prevention of bullying, cyberbullying, or discrimination based on race.

This funding opportunity creates a mechanism for compliance with legislative mandates while supporting school districts and charter schools in the State of Nevada in efforts to meet the unique needs of their school communities. It also acts as an agreement between the local education agency (LEA) and the state education agency (SEA) for creating the conditions necessary to support collaborative and responsive partnership to create bully-free schools for all students and all staff.

Goals and Priorities

This request for funding must be used for one of the following activities:

• The establishment of programs to create a school environment that is free from bullying, cyberbullying and discrimination based on race.
• Providing training on the policies adopted by the district to prevent bullying, cyberbullying, and discrimination based on race.
• The development and implementation of procedures that allow students and staff to discuss bullying, cyberbullying, and discrimination based on race and the policies surrounding bullying, cyberbullying and discrimination based on race.

About

With deep roots in California’s Central Valley, The Save Mart Companies and its family of stores prides itself in being a part of neighborhoods and putting people first. Our dedication to customers is reflected in the connections we’ve made in the communities we’ve served for more than 70 years.

The Save Mart Companies CARES Foundation

In 2000, we established The Save Mart Companies CARES Foundation, our philanthropic, non-profit organization, supporting programs and organizations that provide vital resources for children and families in the communities we serve. The CARES Foundation focuses on building stronger communities through fresh foods, accessibility, and programs that support youth and helping them to thrive. Annually, The CARES Foundation contributes approximately $500,000 in small grants to support community-based, non-profit organizations.

The Save Mart Companies CARES Foundation Grant

The CARES Foundation’s focus is building stronger communities through fresh foods, access to food, and programs that support youth and helping them thrive.

The CARES Foundation will review, on a quarterly basis, among other things, the breadth of the audience served; the likely impact in the community; the importance of the need to be addressed in the community; and the community reputation, service history, and financial stability of the group or program seeking funds. No one of these or other factors will necessarily be weighted more heavily than another. Instead, each group or program will be measured against all groups and 2 programs seeking funding at the time. For example, a program serving a small segment of the community but that addresses an especially important community need, and thus has the potential for a strong and meaningful impact, would be favored over a group serving a wider clientele but that fills a less important community need. Requests for Grants should be a minimum of $500.00 up to $10,000.00. Programs and organizations requesting smaller grants should contact the Store Manager of the nearest Save Mart Companies’ store location for request consideration.

Recipients that receive grants for more than one year must demonstrate meaningful outcomes for the previous investment made by The CARES Foundation.
