Finding a Grant
The majority of educational grants are funded by the federal government, state governments, foundations and businesses. Grant awards can range from $200 to hundreds of thousands of dollars. However, large grants, in terms of dollars awarded, may not have as great an impact as smaller grants. Many foundations and businesses funnel millions of dollars to classroom teachers through smaller grant awards in order to have a direct impact on the needs of individual classrooms, teachers, and students. A small grant in terms of dollars can make a big difference to a classroom teacher interested in change, creativity, and hope.

This list of grant sources is by no means complete but can give a classroom teacher a place to start. Further searching via the Internet can give additional possibilities. Teachers can also check with businesses in their local communities to inquire about grant programs.
