We are thrilled to announce that Wonderful Education has partnered with DonorsChoose.org to fund classroom projects in select Central Valley (California) schools! Since 1999, Wonderful Education has funded over 1,400 grants at 80 schools across the Central Valley and invested $3.5 million to improve the educational outcomes for these students. Your classroom project could be next! The great news is... all you have to do is be a teacher in one of the Wonderful Education eligible schools, and your project could be eligible. You will not need to "tag" your project or reach out to Wonderful Education to qualify. Read on to find out more!
Eligibility Requirements:
- Teachers from select schools in California’s Central Valley are eligible for grants. Click here to see if your school is eligible.
- Keep your total project goal under $2,000, including taxes, shipping, fees, and the suggested donation to support DonorsChoose.org.
- Funding should directly impact student learning. Projects cannot include requests for furniture (i.e. bookshelves, tables, rugs) staffing, or teacher professional development.
