McDonald’s owner/operators from across Southern Nevada donated $60,000 to 120 local teachers through McDonald’s Make Activities Count (MAC) Grants program on Nov. 18.

Individual grants of up to $500 were provided for each teacher to directly fund unique educational programs and tools for the 2015-2016 school year.

In recent years, MAC Grant funding has provided local classes with musical instruments, a visit to classes by private zoo Roos-N-More, and a starter kit for a robotics program.
