Community Grant Program
The applicant must be a "frontline educational worker" who is involved in education or a related field in one of the communities eligible for grants. The proposed recipient must be a non-profit or tax-exempt organization (e.g., a public school) that is willing to accept the grant and use it in the required manner.
Created to support frontline educators who often do not have a voice in funding decisions, the program will subsidize small, concrete projects to improve inner-city education in Boston, Hartford, Providence, Washington D.C., or New York City. The proposed use of the grant must be to fund a specific, one-time future education-related need or idea that promises to improve inner-city education within one year of the grant award.
