Community, Education & Outreach

The CE&O Council focuses on ways to benefit our community. This Council provides grants to music programs in our schools, recognizes outstanding women in our community, supports community charities, and provides educational programs.

Grants to K-12 Music Programs

The CE&O Council of the WUCF offers two levels of funding for Seattle area public schools to support their music programs: The new Gendler Grants Program ($5,000 – $20,000); and the ongoing Music Counts! Grants Program (up to $1,500). Both grants are offered annually and the applications forms for these grants are available on the website at the beginning of each school year.

Brava! Awards

These awards are given each year to outstanding women of excellence who have made a difference in our community. They are honored at a dinner in the spring.

Charitable Outreach

The CE&O Council supports 501(c3) charitable organizations and activities throughout the year, including a Holiday Charity which is selected annually.

Public Programs

The CE&O Council sponsors programs for the community that are both educational and entertaining. These events are free and open to the public.
