    Summary

    Studies show that 94% of teachers spend their own money on classroom supplies. Further, these studies also show that teachers spend an average of $500 per year to help kids whose families just can't afford the required materials. The Kids In Need Foundation's Supply a Teacher Box Grants program is dedicated to empowering educators with direct funding to conduct innovative learning experiences.


    The Foundation works to ensure that every child is prepared to learn and succeed by providing free school supplies nationally to students most in need. The purpose of the grants program is to provide a donation of in-kind materials for classroom teachers who have innovative, meritorious ideas or who want to replicate a project previously funded. Your project may qualify for funding if it makes creative use of common teaching aids, approaches the curriculum from an imaginative angle, or ties nontraditional concepts together for the purpose of illustrating commonalities.
