The first 1,000 currently active public high school teachers in the state of California who complete 20 hours of NGPF professional development are eligible to receive a $500 stipend. If I complete 40 hours of PD, will I be eligible for an additional $500 stipend? Because we want to reach as many high school teachers as possible, we are limiting stipends to one per teacher.
You are encouraged to take as much PD as desired. How much time will I have to complete these 20 hours of professional development and earn this $500 stipend? The grant program is not time-based but rather teacher-based.
Funding is available to provide stipends to 1,000 California high school teachers who complete 20 PD hours. As of September 9, 2024, there are more than 500 stipends available. How will the stipends be provided and when?
You will receive a $500 Amazon e-gift card as a stipend. NGPF will process these stipends on a quarterly rolling basis. I already invested 20 hours in NGPF PD before the start of this program on August 18, 2022.
Will I receive a $500 stipend based on this prior work? No. The $500 stipend will only be given for hours completed on August 18, 2022 or later. Are there costs for the professional development workshops?
NGPF offers all of its professional development at no cost. Over the past two years, 10,000+ educators nationwide have invested more than 250,000 hours in NGPF PD. I finished my 20 credits, what do I need to do?
NGPF will automatically tally your hours and will notify you that you are a recipient of the grant within a month after you complete the 20 credits. Is NGPF an approved A-G program? Yes, NGPF is approved for “G” credit.
Learn more . The NGPF California Challenge Grant provides funding to schools that introduce a personal finance course in the 2025-6 or 2026-27 school years. With up to $1M available, the grant can support a range of early implementation efforts — including pilot programs, teacher preparation, and curriculum rollout.
Schools introducing a standalone personal finance course can receive: $2,500 per school for courses added in 2026-27 Districts can earn up to $25,000 if 10 schools implement a course in the 2025-26 school year.
To qualify, courses must: Be newly implemented in 2026-27 Be at least one semester long (60–90 consecutive live, teacher-led instructional hours) Teachers and administrators from public and high schools in CA are encouraged to apply. More information and application details can be found here . When are grant submissions due?
The deadline for the 2026-27 school year is currently set for June 1, 2026, though this may be subject to change. Do we need to submit one entry per school, or can we submit one entry for the entire district? The method for demonstrating that you offer a new personal finance class depends on the available documentation.
If your district’s course catalog or board meeting records include the new course, you can use that single document to represent multiple schools. However, if each school has its own course catalog, it’s best to submit each one individually. Where can I get support if I need help?

The National Leadership Grants for Libraries Program (NLG-L) supports projects that address critical needs of the library and archives fields and have the potential to advance practice and strengthen library and archival services for the American public. Successful proposals will generate results such as new models, tools, research findings, services, practices, and/or alliances that can be widely used, adapted, scaled, or replicated to extend and leverage the benefits of federal investment. Applications to IMLS should both advance knowledge and understanding and ensure that the federal investment made generates benefits to society. Specifically, the goals for this program are to generate projects of far-reaching impact that: • Build the workforce and institutional capacity for managing the national information infrastructure and serving the information and education needs of the public. • Build the capacity of libraries and archives to lead and contribute to efforts that improve community well-being and strengthen civic engagement. • Improve the ability of libraries and archives to provide broad access to and use of information and collections with emphasis on collaboration to avoid duplication and maximize reach. • Strengthen the ability of libraries to provide services to affected communities in the event of an emergency or disaster. • Strengthen the ability of libraries, archives, and museums to work collaboratively for the benefit of the communities they serve. Throughout its work, IMLS places importance on diversity, equity, and inclusion. This may be reflected in an IMLS-funded project in a wide range of ways, including efforts to serve individuals of diverse geographic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds; individuals with disabilities; individuals with limited functional literacy or information skills; individuals having difficulty using a library or museum; and underserved urban and rural communities, including children from families with incomes below the poverty line. Application Process: The application process for the NLG-L program has two phases; applicants must begin by applying for Phase I. For Phase I, all applicants must submit Preliminary Proposals by the September 20th deadline listed for this Notice of Funding Opportunity.
