Grant Program Designed to Support Full-Time K-12 Educators in Kansas (USA)
GrantID: 58901
Grant Funding Amount Low: $50
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $500
Summary
This grant program is designed to support full-time K-12 educators across the United States—public, private, or charter—who are actively seeking to enhance their classroom environment or professional growth. The funding is available for those who haven’t received a similar award from this organization in the past two years. It’s open to educators nationwide, with specific application deadlines each year (typically once in the autumn and once in the spring).
Funds can be used in two broad categories: (1) professional development (such as attending a conference, workshop, or acquiring training materials) and (2) classroom enrichment (including books, software, manipulatives, lab supplies, art materials, or media and audio-visual equipment). The intent is to enable teachers to bring new energy, strategies, or resources into their classrooms to benefit students directly.
Award amounts are modest but meaningful—usually up to around $500 per educator or project. Since multiple awards are granted each cycle, the program encourages thoughtful, focused proposals that have clear student impact and feasible budgets. Applications are evaluated competitively, and funds typically must be expended within a defined timeframe (for example, within one year of the award).
The key benefits of this opportunity include access to funds without a significant institutional overhead, the potential to pilot a new idea or enrich classroom practice, and recognition among peers for innovation and commitment. The interests of the program emphasize direct classroom or student-facing improvement, teacher growth, and resource investment that supports hands-on, engaging, and modern learning environments.
In short: if you’re a full-time teacher looking for support to help your students or your own teaching practice via materials, training, or creative classroom projects—and you are willing to submit a concise proposal by the established deadlines—this could be a practical and helpful funding source.
