The Edward E. Ford Foundation Educational Leadership Grant

Program Description

The purpose of this program is to support proposals that promise a significant impact on the practice and thinking in the independent school community throughout the country; are innovative and replicable; have a ripple effect where the benefits of the successful pursuit of an idea will not be limited to a single school; encourage bold, new ideas that address challenges faced by independent schools; represent original thinking and can conceivably catalyze change; inspire creative problem-solving and incubate novel approaches; and involve partnerships outside of the immediate school community when appropriate.
