Can a School Get a FEMA Grant to Build a Monolithic Dome?

A public or independent school district, university, government or nonprofit may be eligible for a FEMA grant to build a Monolithic Dome if it is located in Tornado Risk Zones II, III or IV. The dome can be designed to fill a specific need, such as classrooms, gym, auditorium, cafeteria, etc. and serve as the designated disaster shelter when a tornado strikes.

Anne (Williams) Danysh, a professional, successful grant writer, says that a Monolithic Dome has a far better chance of getting a FEMA grant than a traditional structure. That’s because a Monolithic Dome is disaster-resistant and has the ability to provide what FEMA calls *near-absolute protection.*
