If you’re planning on hosting a Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day event on or around November 14, 2025, you may be eligible for a $500 or $1000 grant. Applications open August 4 and are due August 22. Grants will be awarded by October 4.

Eligible applicants include local governments, schools, PTAs, nonprofits and Safe Routes to School partners. First-time events and communities that did not receive 2024 funding will be prioritized.

Funds can support supplies, speakers, books, art contests, and more. Events must promote activism, anti-racism, and positive change. Learn more about this opportunity to support your school’s Ruby Bridges event.
