About the Leeds Education Foundation

Our Vision

how it works

The Leeds Education Foundation envisions a community where every student has the resources, opportunities, and encouragement to thrive. By funding innovative grants and scholarships, we support educators in shaping classrooms that inspire curiosity, achievement, and a lifelong love of learning. Together with our donors and community partners, we are building a stronger future for Leeds through education.

how it works

Each year, Leeds City School teachers are invited to submit grant applications that support innovative classroom projects, essential resources, and creative learning opportunities. To ensure fairness, the Board does not know which teacher submitted an application when they are reviewed and voted on. By giving, you make it possible for educators to dream bigger and do more for their students.

Our goal

Our goal

Our goal is simple yet powerful: to encourage every Leeds City School teacher to take part in the grant process and to fully fund 100% of the applications that qualify. By removing barriers and supporting innovative ideas, we aim to ensure that no worthy project goes unfunded. With the continued generosity of our donors, we strive to create classrooms where teachers have the tools they need and students have the opportunities they deserve.
