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.

A long list is the starting point, not the shortlist. Our grant prospecting guide shows how to narrow grants for education down to the funders most likely to say yes, using their giving records.
