THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: Chronic Absenteeism, Youth Homelessness/Housing Insecurity, K-12 Learning/Education
Deadline: Apr. 9, 2025
“The Imagine Signature Grant Program (ISGP) seeks to amplify national or regional non-profit organizations’ efforts which align to the mission of ILF and meet one or more of the funding priority areas of focus identified by ILF.
Funding Priority Areas of Focus: Chronic absenteeism, particularly for children experiencing homelessness, has severe consequences for learning, emotional well-being, stability, and future outcomes through a student’s life. Two-thirds of K-12 students attended a school where at least 20% of the student body was chronically absent, creating a crisis for these students, especially in math and reading. Additionally, there are over 1.2 million students experiencing homelessness putting them at greater academic and graduation risks than their peers.
2025 Funding Priority: Support eligible organizations addressing and/or studying critical issues related to chronic absenteeism and student housing insecurity in K-12 learning environments. In 2025, the ISGP grants will continue to prioritize the areas that ISGP funded in 2024, such as basic needs support and wraparound services for students and families experiencing homelessness, and also other needs in line with our mission and addressing chronic absenteeism and housing insecurity’s impact on K-12 learning.
Additionally, in response to the recent wildfires and rebuilding efforts in the Los Angeles Metropolitan Area and San Diego County, ISGP will allocate a portion of its 2025 grants to initiatives that are both aligned with its mission and focus on recovery and support in affected communities.”
