Mission & Focus Areas
The Consortium’s stated mission is to maximize the impact of Florida’s local education foundations and facilitate their support for classroom innovation and student achievement. It also serves as a conduit for public and private funders seeking to support student achievement in geographic or programmatic areas across Florida.
A major focus is the School District Education Foundation Matching Grant Program, which pairs state matching funds with private investment raised locally. The program prioritizes literacy, support for struggling students, STEM, career and technical education, graduation rates, teacher quality, and student resiliency, citizenship, and life skills. Scholarships, athletics, incentive-based programs, general administrative expenses, and projects outside the stated priority areas are ineligible for this matching program.
The Consortium’s 2024 filing also describes work in student resiliency, college and career pathways and scholarships, and STEM and project-based learning. Its filing describes partnerships with local education foundations and private-sector partners in these areas.
The organizations receiving the Consortium’s largest 2025 grants are local education foundations. For example, The Education Fund describes its mission as raising funds and providing services to improve education quality in Miami-Dade County public schools. The Foundation for Orange County Public Schools says it focuses community involvement and investment on student success. Hillsborough Education Foundation describes its goal as ensuring students receive an outstanding public education that prepares them for a fulfilling future. Jacksonville Public Education Fund says it activates community support, connects partners, and advances effective ideas for student success.
Grantmaking
In filing year 2025, the Consortium reported 60 grants totaling $8,874,178. Grants ranged from $5,200 to $793,502, with a median of $104,978. All reported grant dollars went to recipients in Florida.
The largest reported awards included $793,502 to The Education Fund in Miami-Dade County, $666,288 to Broward Education Foundation, $561,951 to The Foundation for Orange County Public Schools, and $546,776 to Hillsborough Education Foundation. The filing lists the purpose of these grants as enhancing public education at the community level.
The Consortium’s website says schools, educators, and district staff should contact their local education foundation about the matching grant program; only the local education foundation designated by each Florida public school district may apply. Its grants management system describes registration and applications as processes for member local education foundations, with one point of contact per foundation. Applications are prepared and submitted online during the call-for-applications period.
The Suncoast Scholars Program is a scholarship program for high school seniors in Suncoast’s 25-county Florida service territory, administered through local education foundations. Its listed county application periods were for the Class of 2026 and ended no later than August 31, 2026; those deadlines have passed.
