The Shallow Ford Foundation is thrilled to announce the first recipients of its Bingham Arts Grants, a new grant opportunity designed to bring vibrant arts and cultural experiences to Clemmons.
In Spring 2025, Becky Dorman, Instructional Facilitator at Forbush Middle School, received a $1,000 Creative Classroom Grant from the Yadkin County Education Foundation fund of the Shallow Ford Foundation. Her goal? To purchase Breakout EDU boxes—innovative tools that turn lessons into interactive, problem-solving adventures.
When the recent government shutdown left many families facing unexpected challenges, one of our donors received an urgent message from a local food pantry. The pantry was seeing a sudden rise in need and was asking for help. Wanting to support their neighbors, the donor reached out to the Shallow Ford Foundation to share the concern and to ask whether there was anything more that could be done.
The Shallow Ford Foundation is pleased to announce the first round of grants from its newly launched Lewisville-Clemmons Education Fund, awarding a total of $11,500 to five schools in the Lewisville-Clemmons area.
Students across Yadkin County will be experiencing new opportunities this school year for hands-on learning and creative exploration thanks to the Yadkin County Education Foundation, a fund of the Shallow Ford Foundation.
