ING Unsung Heroes Program Opens Grant Program for K-12 Educational Projects
Deadline: April 30, 2011

The ING Unsung Heroes program annually provides grants to K-12 educators utilizing new teaching methods and techniques to improve learning.

Educators are welcome to submit grant applications describing projects they have initiated or would like to pursue. Each project is judged on its innovative method, creativity, and ability to positively influence students.

Each year, one hundred educators are selected to receive $2,000 each to help fund their innovative class projects. Three recipients are then selected to receive additional top awards of $5,000, $10,000, and $25,000.

All K-12 education professionals are eligible to apply. Applicants must be employed by an accredited K-12 public or private school located in the United States and must be full-time educators, teachers, principals, paraprofessionals, or classified staff with projects that improve student learning.
