The Anne Meyer & David Rose Founders' Fund for Innovation
Anne Meyer, David Rose, Skip Stahl, and Grace Meo founded CAST in 1984, developing and shaping the framework, theory, practice, and guidelines for Universal Design for Learning.
In honor of founding partners, Anne Meyer, David Rose, Skip Stahl, and Grace Meo, the CAST Board of Directors created the Founders' Fund for Innovation. The fund celebrates the founders' 33-year commitment to transforming education with the goal of stimulating original and creative work—the hallmark of its founders.
Providing support for staff, the Founders' Fund for Innovation incents CAST’s committed professionals to extend our ongoing work in new directions, and explore entirely new processes or tools.
High risk/high reward initiatives, large and small, not otherwise easily funded, are ideal for this fund.
