NewSchools Venture Fund: Racial Equity

The NewSchools Venture Fund supports and invests in promising teams of educators and entrepreneurs with the vision and skills to reimagine learning. The Fund's Racial Equity funding opportunity will support innovators of color throughout the U.S. with bold ideas to advance racial equity in education. Leaders who meet the following criteria are eligible to apply: 1) identify as a person of color, 2) have an idea focused on advancing racial equity in pre-K-12 education that does not fall into one of the Fund's three existing investment areas, and 3) lead an organization that is in the early stage of development. Grantees will receive funding as well as management assistance to support the development of their ideas. The application deadline is June 4, 2021.
