Grantmakers for Thriving Youth

About this grant

This grant supports Grantmakers for Thriving Youth, a project of the National Public Education Support Fund, facilitating and convening a group of funders in education, child and youth development and other allied fields. The project is a funder’s forum that promotes equitable systems, structures and opportunities for a comprehensive approach to learning and development so all young people can build and strengthen skills and capacities they need to thrive in learning, work, citizenship and life. Over the course of the project the grantee will: 1) convene a funders group to create grantmaking strategies to support conditions for youth thriving in education; 2) deepen funder understanding of strategies to advance equity and youth voice in the grantmaking sphere; and 3) create space for learning and collaboration to support a healthy education workforce.
