About
We opened in 1997 as the nation’s first dedicated E-rate compliance services firm, and we still do one thing: help schools and libraries get funded and stay compliant. We are Guides, not vendors.

Our mission
Our mission is to transform student lives by helping K-12 schools and public libraries secure federal funding for internet access.
Since 1997 our Guides have walked alongside applicants through every stage of the E-rate program, from the first Form 470 to the funding commitment and beyond.

How Guides work
Treating others with respect and courtesy, always being honest and responsible. Adhering to high standards of integrity and ethics without wavering.
Showing careful consideration for the needs of other people. Being accountable and exercising self-control to pursue and achieve outcomes.
Performing well in a consistent manner over a long period of time. Contributing to the team on a consistent and trusted basis.
Appreciating and leveraging the strengths of others, relying on them for help, input, and feedback. Working cohesively with the FFL team.
Striving to succeed and staying positive even when encountering resistance. Developing creative approaches to fulfill others’ needs.

Talk to a Guide
Every client works with a named Guide, not a queue. Tell us about your district or library and we will introduce you.
Funds For Learning sells no E-rate eligible services, holds no SPIN, and accepts no payments from service providers tied to their sales to applicants. Our only interest is our clients' funding.
