About grants for teachers

Teacher grants fund classroom projects, professional development, innovative teaching methods, and educational materials. From DonorsChoose campaigns to NEA Foundation grants and Department of Education programs, teachers can access funding to enhance learning experiences and advance their careers.

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.
