we want to support your enduring idea.
In this time of crisis, our sense of interdependence is more apparent than ever.
Folks all across the country are using that feeling to transform the traditional educational paradigm. Some started this transformation well before our current global challenge, and are seeing the fruits of that work blossom in this difficult time.
This fund seeks to support the seeds that were planted in communities, both during this crisis and well before, that we hope will endure and grow into a modern, 21st century, learner-centered learning system.

who can submit an idea?
educators
We use this term loosely. Yes, we mean teachers. Administrators. District leaders. We also mean library and museum professionals and other out-of-school learning sites - anyone that is part of a young person's learning ecosystem.
|
young peopleWe highly encourage young people, under the age of 24, to share their ideas for the potential to be awarded catalytic funding. Your ideas are critical to the development of new learning paradigms.
|
community membersWe have learned more than ever in this difficult time that we all have a stake in the education of young people in our communities.
