GRAMMY in the Schools is the umbrella name for the GRAMMY Foundation’s education programs. One of those programs is the Signature Schools Awards. Signature Schools Awards provide grants to school music departments based upon need and merit. Need-based grants range from $1,000 to $5,000. Merit-based grants range in value from $500 to $5,000. You can apply for the grants here.

Unfortunately, when school budgets across the country get cut music programs are often the first to feel the cuts. GRAMMY in the Schools provide schools with an opportunity to get some money to help their programs.
