VELA Education Fund supports everyday entrepreneurs who are boldly reimagining education.

ACCELERATING ADOPTION

Summer 2021 Bridge Grants
VELA’s Summer 2021 Bridge Grant opportunity is for organizations building nontraditional learning models to meet learners’ and families’ needs.
Whereas VELA’s microgrants support early-stage groups in their exploration of new ideas, our Bridge Grants are larger grants intended for more established organizations that are looking to bridge to wider adoption, whether it’s to another audience, another region, or through a new pilot. As always, VELA is looking for nontraditional education programs that represent bottom-up, not top-down, innovation.
Interested applicants should complete a pre-application by 5:00 p.m. EST on Friday, July 23. Selected applicants will be invited to submit a full application in early August.
