School children are the principal beneficiaries of our funds. In the last past five years, we have funded programs bringing music education to nearly 100,000 kids, both in the seven-county metropolitan area and throughout the state of Minnesota, western Wisconsin and eastern North Dakota. These students attend a wide range of schools in our area, both public and private, and come from every grade level.
Establishing a presence for music education in schools has never been easy. TCOG is proud to work with a variety of organizations who are creating programs that support music education. Twice each year (Fall and Winter), we review applications for education grants.
Apply now for Fall 2026 Grants-due by August 31. Grants for 2027 Winter/Spring/Summer will be due by the end of October. Application information at bottom of this page.
