Grants for Great Ideas- This competitive grant program offers teachers and schools funding for innovative classroom ideas that engage students.

Grant Information

The Clay Education Foundation and the Community First Cares Foundation are continuing the familiar “Grants 4 Great Ideas” program to provide $25,000 in grants to support innovative literacy, STEM, and college and career education projects to benefit students in the 2024-2025 school year. The Clay Education Foundation will have a selection committee that will identify projects with the most potential for student impact. After a project is selected, the Clay Education Foundation and Community First will fund the given teacher’s project FULLY via DonorsChoose.

Through the expanded partnership, teachers are eligible for up to $750 per grant in the areas of literacy, STEM (science, technology, engineering, math, and computer science), and college and career readiness. School-wide grants in literacy, STEM, or college and career readiness are available up to $1250. Teachers may apply for up to two grants, while schools are only eligible for one per grant cycle.
