Mini Grants
Additionally, NASUP’s Anti-Racism Committee is pleased to announce the third funding opportunity, specifically for practicing teachers. Again this year, the Antiracist Curriculum & Pedagogy Mini-Grants provide funding for practicing teachers to purchase needed materials (i.e., books, visual media, etc.) that support the ideals of antiracism, equity, fairness, justice, and inclusivity in their curriculum. Approximately 6 awards (of up to $500 each) will be awarded to winning applicants and are intended to ensure antiracist curriculum and pedagogy is a part of P-12 students’ learning experiences. More details can be found HERE. Applications must be received by 11:59 PM ET on May 8, 2026.
