Education Funding Sources

​​We understand that sometimes the best educational tools are out of reach without the proper funding. We're here to help by providing grant and funding sources available to educators. Please note: clicking the links below in no way guarantees funding; rather these are funding avenues to explore. It's also worthy to note that the most successful schools work with their local communities to fund educational opportunities. Be sure to connect with local agencies, including your area Chamber of Commerce, to connect with local or regional business or industries that are looking to support educational initiatives.
