About Education Grants for Nonprofits

Educational nonprofits fund research initiatives, teacher professional development programs, student scholarship distributions, and community learning services that strengthen K–12 and higher education systems. The 7,368 active grants in this category are led by the National Institutes of Health, which supports evidence-based education projects alongside the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. These grants target capacity-building, direct program delivery, and training activities.

Award amounts typically range from $43K to $320K, with 94% awarded through competitive selection processes. Notably, only 11% require cost-sharing, making these grants more accessible than many education-sector opportunities. To refine your search, filter by funding agency—selecting NIH or BECA directly will surface the most aligned opportunities for your nonprofit's educational mission.
