DonorsChoose is a popular crowdfunding platform for teachers that allows them to create project requests and receive funding from donors. Teachers can request funding for classroom supplies, books, technology, and other resources that can improve their students’ learning experience.

The NEA Foundation offers grants for classroom projects that support innovative teaching and learning. Grants are available for individual teachers, teams of teachers, and entire school districts. Funding can be used for professional development, instructional resources, and project-based learning activities.
The Pets in the Classroom Grant provides funding for elementary teachers to purchase and maintain classroom pets. The grant covers the cost of the pet, food, and supplies. Classroom pets can help improve students’ social and emotional development, as well as teach responsibility and empathy.

Supply A Teacher, a Kids In Need Foundation program, provides teachers with two large boxes filled with a semester’s worth of essential school supplies.
