District 20, RTO/ERO was founded in 1973, to serve the retired teachers of Lennox and Addington, Frontenac and Leeds and Grenville counties. From the 128 original members has grown an organization of over 1,700 members and associate members who enjoy the benefits of provincial affiliation with a group of over 60,200 retirees, as well as a variety of local activities.

Project Service to Others

Applications must be submitted to the District Executive by October 31 each year. Successful applicants will be chosen by the Executive at the November meeting.

Each year, District 20 awards up to $6,000 to local service projects to organizations that do community work. Up to $2,000 is available in each of our three counties: Lennox and Addington, Frontenac, and Leeds and Grenville. The maximum award for each grant is $1,000.

The project must raise the profile of retired teachers by visibly demonstrating to active teachers and to the public-at-large that retired teachers care about their communities and about public education, and are willing to do something to help those who need assistance. The project may be education-related, or may be directed to the benefit of the wider community. Some recent recipients of local Project STO grants are Books for Babies in Lennox and Addington, Bags Plus and the Frontenac Schools Museum in Frontenac, and Linklater Public School Breakfast Program and Friends of the Prescott Public Library in Leeds and Grenville.

If your organization would like to apply for funds, please complete the application form (Click Here) PDF Format or  MS Word Format and send it to the secretary of District 20. (click here) Nina Jenkins
