Robin Hood Learning + Technology Fund - Robin Hood Robin Hood Learning + Technology Fund What if every New York City student had the technology to unlock their potential? The Robin Hood Learning + Technology Fund is a collaboration among Robin Hood, Overdeck Family Foundation, and Siegel Family Endowment investing in innovations that advance achievement for students living in poverty.
The Robin Hood Learning + Technology Fund is dedicated to unlocking the potential of technology to transform learning and advance achievement for low-income students in New York City. We seed and scale bright spots of innovation in two focus areas: Computational Thinking (Elementary–Middle School): Developing problem-solving, data, and algorithmic reasoning skills so students can think, solve, and create with technology.
Blended, High-Quality, Content-Rich Literacy (K–12): Integrating technology, top-tier curriculum, and teacher support to boost reading and writing. Across both pillars, we build the research base and share learnings with the field to support replication and scale.

New York City students living in poverty too often lack access to learning that meets their needs, unlocks their potential, and prepares them for a global, tech-driven economy. The Fund brings together leading thinkers in education and technology to change that—so all students can succeed in a rapidly changing world. The Fund is a $50 million initiative powered by Robin Hood, Overdeck Family Foundation, and Siegel Family Endowment.
Together, we invest in visionary educators, curriculum providers, teacher training programs, researchers, families, and school systems to bring evidence-based innovation into classrooms. Blending technology into curriculum and classroom practice has the potential to help teachers and students get the support they need, enhancing both teaching and learning in NYC.

What this looks like: classroom tools that surface student thinking in real time; professional learning that helps teachers use data to tailor instruction; multimedia resources that make complex topics accessible. Read the concept paper and learn about blended literacy in practice .
Promote computational thinking: We’re building a pipeline of teachers equipped to teach CT—formulating problems for computer-aided solutions, organizing/analyzing data, modeling and simulating, and using algorithmic thinking. What this looks like: pre-service and in-service training; curricula and toolkits aligned to standards; research-practice partnerships that test and refine models at scale.

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.
