Frequently Asked Questions

What are the easiest grants for teachers to get?

DonorsChoose has the lowest barrier — create a project, and donors fund it directly. The NEA Foundation offers Learning & Leadership Grants up to $5,000. Many education supply companies run teacher grant programs. State education agencies and local education foundations often have simple application processes for grants under $2,500.

Can teachers get grants for technology?

Yes. Best Buy Foundation, Verizon Innovative Learning, and Google for Education all fund classroom technology. The E-Rate program subsidizes internet connectivity. Many state education technology grants exist. ISTE and other education technology organizations maintain directories of tech-focused teacher grants.

Are there grants for teacher professional development?

Absolutely. The NEA Foundation, Fund for Teachers, and Fulbright Distinguished Awards all fund professional growth. Title II-A federal funds support teacher development at the school level. Many subject-specific organizations (NCTM, NCTE, NSTA) offer professional development grants.
