Adopt-a-Classroom

For Parents & Supporters

At Bay Area, we believe some of the most meaningful ideas for improving classrooms come straight from the teachers who know their students best. That’s why we created the Adopt-a-Classroom Program — a way for you to help bring those classroom dreams to life.

When you adopt a teacher’s grant, you’re investing directly in tools, resources, and upgrades that enhance learning every single day. Whether it’s flexible seating that fosters collaboration or STEM manipulatives that bring hands-on discovery to life, your support makes it possible.

How You Can Get Involved:

  • Adopt a Classroom: Choose a teacher’s project and fund it directly.

  • Give to the Slush Fund: Contribute to a pool that supports multiple grants of all sizes.

  • Bid at the Gala: Join the fun at our Silent & Live Auctions, where grant projects will be featured and funded.

Together, we can build stronger classrooms, inspire teachers, and spark curiosity in every child. 💙.

Each year, teachers will be encouraged to dream big and write grants that will enhance learning in their classroom.

Your creativity and vision are the heart of this program! If you’ve been imagining new ways to engage students — from classroom furniture to interactive software — this is your opportunity to make it a reality.

Adopt-a-Grant Guidelines:

  • Grant requests may range from $500–$10,000.

We can’t wait to see your ideas — and to connect them with the parents and supporters ready to bring them to life!
