2026/2027 Access Fund Grants Application

Access Fund Grants aim to ensure that every student has access to enriching educational experiences and resources to support learning, engagement, and success in school. Eligibility will be limited to schools where 60% or more of students qualify for Free or Reduced-Price Lunch (FRL).

Through timely, responsive grants, the fund supports opportunities that enhance student learning, remove barriers to participation, and strengthen school communities. By investing in educators and schools where additional resources can have the greatest impact, the Access Fund helps expand access to experiences and opportunities that might not otherwise be available.

The goal of the Access Fund is simple: to ensure that a student’s opportunities are not determined by their school’s ability to raise supplemental funds, but by their potential to learn, grow, and succeed.

The foundation is looking for projects with proposed budgets up to $2,500. Projects with larger proposed budgets will be considered on a case by case basis.
