The Racial Equity in Schools Fund equips teachers with resources to create school environments where students of color can thrive. We are looking to provide proven strategies and resources that will have long-lasting benefits for BIPOC students nationwide.
While all educators have a place in the fight for racial equity, we believe that it is critical to acknowledge the history of disenfranchisement and resource starvation experienced by BIPOC educators and students. We specifically prioritize these flexible funding grants to BIPOC educators because they are leaders who deserve priority in this work.
We are now accepting applications for $750 Racial Equity in Schools Fund Grants. Submit your application by 2/13/25.
