New Grant Opportunity to Support Bad Axe Students - Cubitt Family Fund Accepting Applications
Honoring the spirit and legacy of Harold and Vera Cubitt, this fund will provide grants to educators, extracurricular activities, and programs positively impacting Bad Axe Public Schools students.
The Harold and Vera Cubitt Family Fund was started by Harold and Vera’s grandchildren, many of whom benefited from the generosity and encouragement of their high school and community. The family's intention is to entice future generations of students to seek their passion through post high school education, allowing them to achieve personal successes that in turn will benefit their community.
