LifeChanger of the Year, an annual national recognition program for educators and school employees, is excited to announce a back-to-school grant opportunity for teachers as they prepare for the 2026-2027 school year.
This summer, LifeChanger of the Year will be awarding 10 Back-to-School Supply Grants of $750 to K-12 public, private, and charter school employees nationwide. These grants are designed to help cover the out-of-pocket costs educators often face for school supplies.
