Innovation Grants and Learning & Leadership Grants

The NEA Foundation funds hundreds of Innovation Grants and Learning & Leadership Grants to support great ideas.  Grant amounts are either $2,000 or $5,000 per project.  Those who apply by June 1, 2006 will be notified by November 15, 2006.

Innovation Grants fund project-based learning that significantly improves achievement for underserved students.  Learning & Leadership Grants provide opportunities to engage in high-quality professional development and lead colleagues in professional growth. Grants are available for all subjects including the arts, literacy, science and technology. 

Practicing K–12 public school teachers, education support professionals, or faculty and staff at public higher education institutions are eligible to apply (with preference given to members of the National Education Association).  We encourage grant applications from teachers and staff with less than seven years of experience in the profession and education support professionals.

Please visit www.neafoundation.org for details on grant programs, guidelines, examples of funded projects and an application.
