Full description from the funder

Next cycle not yet posted. Annual. Grant information is distributed in January each year; applications due May 1; award decisions over the summer; funded projects run the following school year and summer. Grants of $500 to $1,500 for IU13 educators, professionals and instructors to carry out innovative or creative projects within IU13 educational programs that are not funded by program budgets. Fully rendered WordPress page; llefoundation.org robots.txt disallows only /wp-admin/. The IU13 site link (iu13.org/community/get-involved/llef) 302-redirects to llefoundation.org.

The page states the month and day only; the 2027 year is inferred from the stated annual cycle (the May 1, 2026 deadline has passed and 2027 information is distributed in January). No application form or link on the page; contact foundation@iu13.org / (717) 606-1873. Eligibility is limited to IU13 staff, not member-district teachers. Topic-agnostic (any innovative classroom project). Deadline date removed 2026-10-11: the quote gives month and day only, so the site shows the cycle, not an inferred date.
