About tutoring & mentoring grants

Tutoring grants fund academic support programs that pair students with tutors to accelerate learning, close achievement gaps, and recover from learning loss. Funding comes from federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act programs (such as Title I), state competitive and formula grants, and national nonprofits like Accelerate that invest in scalable, evidence-based high-impact tutoring models. Eligible recipients typically include schools, districts, and community-based education organizations.

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

Federal Title I, II, III, and IV programs are among the most stable funding sources, and many states offer competitive or formula grants specifically for tutoring. National funders also award innovation and scaling grants to providers building evidence of student outcomes.

Which organizations fund tutoring programs?

Tutoring is funded through federal education programs administered by the U.S. Department of Education and passed to states and districts, alongside private philanthropy. Accelerate is a leading national nonprofit funder of high-impact tutoring, awarding grants to providers and states integrating tutoring into the school day. Local foundations, corporate giving programs, and federal Work-Study and national service programs also support tutoring efforts.

How can my organization get funding for a tutoring program?

Start by identifying whether you can access federal funds your district already receives, such as Title I, since these are often the most reliable source for tutoring. From there, pursue competitive grants from state education agencies and national funders that prioritize evidence-based models with measurable outcomes. Strong applications document tutor training, dosage, and student results.
