Grant funds can be used for resource materials, supplies, equipment, transportation, or technology. Although some funds may be used to support the professional development necessary to implement the project, the majority of grant funds must be spent on materials or educational experiences for students.
If your budget includes materials, the application must demonstrate how they will play a central role in deepening student knowledge and habits of inquiry. Grant funds cannot be used to pay indirect costs, grant administration fees, salaries, or for lobbying or religious purposes.
While we recognize there is a tremendous need for student devices, unfortunately, at this time, we are unable to fund proposals solely focusing on electronics such as laptops, Chromebooks or tablets.
