LMCU Announces 2025 Roots in Education Teacher Grant


Lake Michigan Credit Union (LMCU) is pleased to announce the return of their Roots in Education teacher grant for 2025.

LMCU’s annual Roots in Education program awards 25 teachers each with a $1,000 grant to enhance their classroom and teaching process. These grants can be used for classroom supplies, subscriptions to online services, or anything that will positively impact the educational experience for students. The educators who receive the award are recognized for embodying a particular admirable trait, with the grant program spotlighting a different trait each year.

This year, LMCU is celebrating educators who are champions. Teachers from pre-K through high school can be nominated for this award. Students, peers, parents, and community members are encouraged to nominate those teachers who champion their students by lifting them up, defending their best interests, and encouraging their ambitions.

Nominees must be residents of Michigan or Florida. More details, full eligibility requirements, and the nomination form can be found by visiting LMCU.org/TeacherGrant. Nominations will be accepted from January 1 through February 28, 2025.
