Thank Goodness it's Funded!

TGIF Classroom Sponsorship

Del-One FCU was founded by state employees and continues to be the credit union of choice for many of Delaware’s educators.
We understand keeping your classroom supply cabinet fully-stocked can be costly, and sometimes the materials you need go beyond what the school’s budget may provide. That’s why Del-One designed this sponsorship with teachers in mind.

We want to help educators say “Thank Goodness It’s Funded!”

What can $500 do for your classroom?

Del-One will be offering SIX $500 T.G.I.F. Sponsorships for
the 2019 – 2020 academic year.

– Two classrooms from New Castle County
– Two classrooms from Kent County
– Two classrooms from Sussex County.

Any T.G.I.F. Sponsorship funds received must be used for the purpose stated on the application and within the same academic year.
