Grantmaking — Glenn W. Bailey Foundation Helping Organizations reach their absolute potential, build capacity, and make a difference in the communities they serve Our funding model includes support for various initiatives, such as program funding, direct impact projects, ecosystem investments, and large-scale, multi-year projects that yield meaningful and lasting results.
We aim to invest in programs with proven, measurable outcomes that are sustainable, scalable, and adaptable. We encourage innovative approaches that generate evidence to replicate successful STEM initiatives, enhancing students’ daily experiences and strengthening existing curricula. Our programs aim to establish a benchmark for the types of seed funding and grassroots changes we can achieve.
We tailor our initiatives to address the issues and inequities we recognize as the root causes of STEM education's systemic challenges in the United States. Post-secondary STEM research funding plays a crucial role in advancing scientific discovery and technological innovation.
By supporting universities and research institutions, this funding enables cutting-edge projects, promotes interdisciplinary collaboration, and attracts top talent. It also fosters a culture of inquiry and experimentation, leading to breakthroughs that can address global challenges and drive economic growth.
Ultimately, investing in STEM research at this level is essential for maintaining a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving landscape of science and technology. Direct STEM funding has a significant impact by enabling targeted initiatives that enhance educational resources, improve access to hands-on learning experiences, and support innovative programs.
This funding fosters collaboration among schools, communities, and organizations, driving improvements in student engagement and achievement in STEM fields. Ultimately, it helps cultivate a skilled workforce ready to tackle future challenges and contribute to technological advancements.
Community Organization Partnerships Community partnerships in STEM are vital for creating inclusive learning environments and fostering local engagement. By collaborating with schools, businesses, and organizations, these partnerships enhance resources, provide mentorship opportunities, and create hands-on experiences for students.
They help bridge the gap between education and real-world applications, ensuring that STEM skills are relevant and accessible. Ultimately, such collaborations empower communities, stimulate interest in STEM fields, and contribute to a more skilled workforce.
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Sustaining STEM Initiatives Our Foundation is promoting programs that help to curb the high attrition rates in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) in the United States as they continue to be a challenge to attract and cultivate STEM degreed graduates.
The United States continues to lag far behind other developed countries in the areas of STEM, and we hope to leverage our philanthropic dollars to help organizations that are working towards developing our country’s future scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and technicians.

Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Education & Human Resources (IUSE: EHR) Program is sponsored by National Science Foundation (NSF). This program promotes novel, creative, and transformative approaches to generating and using new knowledge about STEM teaching and learning to improve STEM education for undergraduate students. It supports projects that bring recent advances in STEM knowledge into undergraduate education, adapt, improve, and incorporate evidence-based practices, and lay the groundwork for institutional improvement in STEM education. Professional development for instructors to ensure adoption of new and effective pedagogical techniques is a potential topic of interest.
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.
