All about Funding
We hear you!
Funding is one of the main obstacles holding physed teachers and coordinators back from incorporating technology into their PE program.
There are many methods of raising the funds for PE. So we here at Heart Zones wanted to take the time to compile all the tips and tricks into one place to make it easier to apply, access, and acquire the needed funds!
Funding from Hospital Foundations
One of the great, but often overlooked, ways to get funding for PE technology is through your local healthcare foundations. This is how PE teachers, Eric Scheunemann & Jacob Breunig, were able to secure funding to add Heart Zones tech to their PE program at Grand Avenue Elementary in Sauk Prairie, Wisconsin! See for yourself how they were founded by the Sauk Prairie Healthcare Foundation and the difference it has made in their school district.
