Explore Funding

New Hampshire K-12 educators have access to a mix of private foundation grants, federal formula funds, and state programs to support CS, STEM, and outdoor learning initiatives. The Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund and NH Charitable Foundation (NHCF) are the most active private funders serving NH schools. Federal formula programs — Title I, Title II-A, Title IV-A, Perkins V, and IDEA — flow through the NH Department of Education and are available to districts of all sizes. With roughly 175 districts and a tradition of community-centered learning, NH educators are well-positioned to compete for both state and national STEM grants.
