CLASSROOM GRANTS
Supporting Our
Local Classrooms
Welcome back to a brand-new school year, educators! Since 2012, every fall brings not just fresh notebooks and new faces, but a powerful opportunity. Principals and teachers have been invited to apply for classroom funding for Equity, STEM, and Arts & Music. This grant program effectively empowers teachers to educate with an innovative and engaging curriculum that ensures successful outcomes for every student, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
Classroom Grant Applications Are OPEN!
2025-2026 Classroom Grant Applications are now open!
We will be accepting grant applications until Sunday, September 29th at 10:00 pm and making grant awards at Monday, September 30 via email.
You may apply for funding in the following areas: STEM, Arts & Music Enrichment, and Equity.
Please focus on how your project or program will bring an opportunity for success for all students you teach.
We want to extend our deepest thanks to our incredible teachers who continue to inspire and educate despite the difficulties they face, and to all of our funders whose unwavering support makes this possible. And also, we want to give our heartfelt gratitude to our amazing Classroom Grant sponsors! It takes a village!
