Description
The Idaho Future Fund, administered by the Idaho Community Foundation, is dedicated to supporting innovative projects that address significant gaps in educational programming for Idaho’s preschool through 12th grade students. This grant prioritizes initiatives that expand preschool access (including scholarships), strengthen charter schools serving underserved communities, and support public schools and libraries impacted by funding shortages. The fund also encourages supplemental educational programs such as afterschool learning, tutoring, and enrichment activities, all aimed at improving educational outcomes for Idaho’s youth. Projects must clearly demonstrate how they will expand opportunities and address unmet needs within the state’s educational landscape.
