About Us

Background

Every year, Cape Cod 5 provides thousands of dollars in mini-grants to fund educational projects to public school teachers in the communities we serve. Since its inception in 2000, more than 1,000 Mini-Grants, totaling over $490,000, have been awarded.

Educational Mini-Grants are grants for amounts up to $500 given to local public school teachers to fund educational projects. Last year, 111 grants were awarded totaling approximately $50,000 to 143 teachers at 56 schools in our communities.

This program has successfully funded innovative projects reaching thousands of students for over 20 years.

Our Goal

One criterion that we often look for in applications is the replicability of the project, which is why it’s important to us that these ideas and projects are shared as widely as possible. We invite you to use this website to get ideas and learn about educational projects that may be beneficial for your students.

Thank you for your interest in the Cape Cod 5 Educational Mini-Grants program!
