Any student can submit an application for a grant, which can range from requests to help buy a prom dress, offset school athletic fees, or medical expenses. The fund has a balance of more than $8,000 thanks to the Biddeford Savings grant. While the fund is administered by the Student Council, the applications are reviewed anonymously, with only the faculty advisor aware of the applicants identity.
