About EdMoney.org
EdMoney.org is a project of the Education Writers Association, with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The site tracks education funds flowing to states and school districts from the federal economic-stimulus law of 2009, known as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, or ARRA. The site, developed by Matt Waite of HotType Consulting, provides data on grants made to states and school districts. It also features a blog aimed at helping reporters cover the topic. In addition, the blog houses stories from "Education Stimulus: Gauging the Impact of a Federal Windfall," a national reporting project tied to the second anniversary of the law and overseen by the Hechinger Report and EWA. Journalists and others are encouraged to contribute to EdMoney.org by uploading links to pertinent stories and blog items; commenting on the blog; and using the data to produce stories of their own.
