Classroom Grants: 

Approved Classroom grant applications will be eligible for $1,000 for elementary schools or $2,000 for secondary schools, depending on funds available.   

We wish we could fund everything Educators need to make their classroom experience the best it can be. But, for budget and mission reasons, we have established the following guidelines for Classroom Grants below. Please check them before moving forward with your Classroom grant application.  Most of our funding is for one year only.
