Teach for Tomorrow Grant

Teach for Tomorrow Grant

The Guardian Credit Union Foundation is excited to provide an opportunity for teachers and students to learn and interact in new ways through the development of the Teach for Tomorrow grant.

Educators throughout Guardian Credit Union’s 14 membership counties* can apply for the opportunity to win one of up to 20 $1000 grants to be used for their classroom or other school-wide goal. Whether it’s a new set of books, a new STEM or STEAM initiative, a school-wide project, a new virtual learning experience, or other exciting educational opportunities, we want to hear about your ideas and help champion these initiatives.

The Application Period Is Closed

The application period for the Fall 2024 cycle of the Teach for Tomorrow Grant is now closed. We will begin reviewing applications and provide updates for the Social Media Voting period soon.

How Voting Works

Once the application period has closed, the Grant Selection Committee will select finalists to be included in social media voting on the Guardian Credit Union Foundation’s Facebook page. Throughout the social media voting period, applicants are encouraged to like, share, and promote their video entry on Facebook to gain the most likes and shares. Grants will be awarded to those with the most likes and shares on the original posts on the Foundation's page. Recipients from the previous Teach for Tomorrow grant are ineligible to receive the award this round. Best of luck!
