Win nearly $1.5 million for promoting financial literacy

The U.S. Department of Education is inviting nonprofit educational organizations with the primary purpose of educating students in grades K-12 about personal finance to apply to the Excellence in Economic Education Program.

Recipients of funding under this program are required to match the grant funds with an equal amount of non-Federal funding. The competition involves supplement-not-supplant funding requirements, therefore funds provided through the grant must be used to supplement, and not supplant, other Federal, State, and local funds expended to support activities that fulfill the purpose of this program.
