Classroom Improvement Grants
Supporting Local Education
Helping educators create meaningful learning experiences.
At TBA Credit Union, supporting educators isn’t just something we do — it’s a plus. As school budgets tighten and classroom needs grow, our Classroom Improvement Grants help teachers bring meaningful projects, tools, and experiences to their students.
We fund ideas that make a real impact: projects that reach more students, strengthen instruction, and shape brighter futures.
Educators can receive up to $1,000 to fund projects that elevate learning and create lasting impact.
Grant opportunities refresh every calendar year, giving educators a new chance annually to bring their ideas to life.
Who Can Apply
- Educators in Antrim, Benzie, Grand Traverse, Kalkaska, and Leelanau counties
- Schools that haven’t received a grant in the past two years
- Teachers committed to enhancing classroom learning
Why It’s a Plus
- Up to $1,000 in support for classroom innovation
- Resources that spark creativity and engagement
- A simple way to make a big difference
Let us help you build the classroom experience your students deserve.
When educators have what they need, students win — and that’s a plus for everyone.
