The Lancaster-Lebanon Education Foundation (LLEF) awards Educational Innovation Grants (formerly Mini-Grants) of $500-$1500 to IU13 educators, professionals, and instructors to foster educational innovation or support creative projects within IU13 educational programs. The Educational Innovation Grants program is made possible through donations to the LLEF to support projects not funded by IU13 program budgets.

Grant information is distributed in January each year. The application deadline is May 1. LLEF makes award decisions during the summer. Funded projects may be implemented from August – September (the school year and following summer).
