One Stop Solution
The National
Education Foundation (NEF) believes that QZAB is a very flexible funding
program, and when used properly, it can make a significant difference
in the lives of the students of the disadvantaged schools. Thus,
NEF’s QZAB mission is to help as many school districts as possible
to use QZAB to improve the performance of their students and teachers.
Most
school districts experience difficulty in issuing QZABs because of two
major reasons:
- Lack of familiarity with the rather new mechanism of QZAB.
- Difficulty in finding a qualified 10% private
business partner.
To
overcome the above problems and to help school districts to issue QZABs
with ease and minimum effort and delay, NEF has created a one stop
solution.
Once
the school district requests NEF assistance in issuing the QZAB, NEF
send a team of QZAB experts (a Qzab specialist, qualified matching
grant donation specialist, qualified financial advisor and a qualified
Bond Issuer) to the school district to help the business manager with
the QZAB application, 10% match and the QZAB issue by a “Qualified Issuer”
(bank, insurance company etc.).
