Grantmakers for Education

With 260 member organizations, Grantmakers for Education (GFE) is the nation's largest, most diverse network of education funders. In addition to growing its membership base, GFE aspires to aligning and coordinating efforts across funders through convenings and services. This grant would help support the development of a new and potentially powerful interactive data-visualization tool that will help funders build a shared understanding of funding flows in areas of education grantmaking. In addition, GFE will host an "Innovation 2.0" work session for grantmakers working in education innovation, with the aim of determining what compelling new strategies and investments must be made now to meet the needs of students in the radically-different learning environment of 2025.
