About grants for education
Education grants fund schools, teachers, students, and learning programs at every level. The Department of Education distributes billions annually through formula and competitive grants, while foundations like Gates, Walton, and Dell support innovation in K-12 and higher education. State agencies add another layer of funding for local education initiatives.
