While the Foundation’s scholarship program aims to advance postsecondary opportunity for Middle Tennessee students, we look to our Grants Initiative to support excellence in the spaces of Literacy, Principal & Teacher Leadership, Career Readiness, and Mentorship.
We forge partnerships with local nonprofit organizations and institutions to ignite transformative change for students, teachers, stakeholders, and communities.
For the remaining 38 counties of Middle TN, a minimum budget of $100,000 is required. All organizations should have at least three revenue sources.
Fostering Career Readiness through robust summer programming delivered in a cohort model
Guiding first-generation college students from Metro Nashville Public Schools toward postsecondary success
Equipping Nashvillians with educational training and career coaching to deliver upward mobility
Combining the power of many to collectively tackle the adult literacy challenge
Blending practice and policy to guide Tennessee communities toward increased literacy rates
Creating an accessible career pathway for aspiring teachers in Middle Tennessee
Harnessing the skills of specialized Instructional Leaders to benefit all educators in the school community
Providing professional development for aspiring school leaders through high-quality learning experiences
Forming a pipeline of well-prepared school leaders through an elevate-from-within approach
Pairing mentorship with literacy instruction to empower young readers
