Wellness grants for 2025-26 start on August 1, 2025! In support of the Los Alamos Public Schools District’s focus on student and staff wellness, the LAPS Foundation offers wellness grants for up to $500 each. Any Los Alamos Public Schools employee may apply. Wellness grants should fit into one of the following categories: physical fitness, mindfulness/stress management, morale, creativity/fun or other (please specify). Wellness grants are not meant to continue funding programs already in place. There is no deadline to apply, but once the funding has been allocated for the year, no more will be available until the next semester. Learn more
