The bill appropriates funds from the general fund to the Minnesota Department of Education for a grant to the Kids In Need Foundation. This grant aims to support programs and activities that reduce absenteeism, foster school engagement, enhance learning interest, improve student grades, and increase graduation rates. The funding is specifically targeted at Minnesota schools where at least half of the enrolled students qualify for free or reduced-price meals, with a focus on low-income students and students of color.

The grant can be utilized for various purposes, including providing educational supplies through the Kids In Need Foundation's Rural and Indigenous School Equity program, increasing access to the Teacher Resource Center and training facility, enhancing volunteer spaces, and supporting additional supply distributions to teachers and students. Additionally, the bill allows for a percentage of the appropriation to be used for grant administration, and it specifies that this is a one-time appropriation.
