Shield Our Schools | Funding Life-Saving School Security The Shield Our Schools Foundation is committed to providing resources to schools that stop school shootings before they start. We all want the same thing for our children. Small changes to fit the needs of every school.
Setting aside political views to focus on solutions. We bring community together to keep our students, teachers, and faculty safe . No parent wants to imagine it.
No community wants to believe it could happen to them. And yet, tragedies continue to unfold in schools across the United States. Too often, attackers gain entry through something preventable—a door that won’t lock properly, a window not built to withstand forced entry, or a malfunctioning security system.
The gaps are small, but the consequences are devastating. Shield Our Schools Foundation (SOS) exists to close those gaps. With the support of Donors around the world, SOS provides funding to schools so they can keep their funds in place for academic enrichment.
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all solution. Working alongside local law enforcement, we identify the tools and techniques that make the greatest impact—like bullet-resistant windows, upgraded locking systems, and even AI-powered cameras that can detect someone with a firearm approaching the school. If a school has a more specific need, we will address it on a case-by-case basis.
Schools choose the solutions that fit their unique needs. It’s simple. It’s effective.
And it saves lives. Every dollar counts and 100% of profits are donated to schools around the county for enhanced security spending. *100% secure & safe payments.
We use Stripe / PayPal to receive payment and 100% of your donation will go to a school in need, excluding processing fees. * Or Join the Shield Society Our grant program is designed to provide financial assistance to educational institutions that want to enhance their security measures in whichever way is best suited for them . There are no restrictions on the type of security systems you implement.
Students now have added protection in their classrooms. Raised in 2025 to fund future school security grants. Of our profits are donated to schools across the country.

WC Docket No. 26-173 is the first comprehensive review of USAC since 1998. It proposes writing schools, libraries, and health care providers into the audit rule, codifying extrapolated recoveries from statistical samples, requiring payment before appeals resolve, and cutting the USAC board from 20 to 13 — eliminating the Schools and Libraries Committee along the way.
Read articleA rewrite of the federal grants rulebook would let political appointees pre-approve or cancel discretionary grants, add per-expense written justification, and layer new state verification before dollars reach districts — while House appropriators move to cut Title I by 9 percent ($1.6 billion). A Senate stopgap blocks the rule only until December 11, 2026. Here is what changes for education grant recipients and the readiness moves to make now.
Read articleBuried in OMB's 400-page rewrite of 2 CFR Part 200 is a structural decision to delete fixed-amount awards and fixed-amount subawards as a permissible federal grant vehicle except where Congress explicitly authorizes them by statute. The change targets outcome-payment grants, milestone-based workforce training contracts, charter school federal pass-throughs, and the entire universe of simplified award programs that have allowed small grantees to operate without month-by-month cost accounting infrastructure. Comments close July 13; proposed effective date October 1. Grantees who do not begin building cost-allocation systems now will not be able to bid on FY27 NOFOs.
