Grants
Providing critical financial support to fuel educational transformation
We give schools the resources to shape the future of education
Educational institutions often face financial constraints when implementing innovative technology initiatives and advancing STEM education programs. Schools with limited budgets may not be able to afford necessary resources — such as cutting-edge technology, equipment, and materials — to enhance learning experiences. As a result, educators may struggle to provide engaging and interactive lessons that foster creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, ultimately impacting student engagement and academic achievement.
Views on Learning (VOL) offers grants to partner educational institutions, providing vital financial support to address these challenges and unlock opportunities for educational advancement. Through programs such as the Technology Innovation Grants for Educational Resources (TIGER) Grant and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Activity Grant, schools gain access to funding that allows them to leverage technology to enhance curriculum delivery and create immersive learning experiences that inspire and engage students.
With VOL’s grant opportunities, educational institutions can overcome financial barriers, access essential resources, and catalyze positive change in their classrooms and communities.

Why apply for a Views on Learning grant
Schools play a vital role in shaping young minds, but limited resources can hinder their ability to provide a truly enriching educational experience. The grants VOL offers can provide crucial financial support for technology and innovative learning initiatives, enabling schools to:
- Create more engaging and interactive learning environments: VOL grants can be used to procure technology tools and resources, including interactive whiteboards, virtual reality experiences, educational software, and online learning platforms. These resources allow for a more dynamic and personalized approach to learning, catering to diverse learning styles and fostering deeper student engagement.
- Ensure equitable access by closing the digital divide: Grants can help schools close the gap between those who have access to technology and those who don't by providing funding for essential EdTech solutions. This promotes educational equity and prepares students for success in a world increasingly reliant on digital skills.
- Support professional development: Grants can be used to equip educators with the skills and knowledge to effectively integrate technology into their teaching practices. Additionally, grant funding can be used to pilot innovative learning initiatives and experiment with new educational approaches.
