The Fund for Adult Education (active 1951-1961) was a subsidiary of the Ford Foundation which supported initiatives in the field of adult education, including educational television and public broadcasting. During its existence, the FAE spent over $47 million.[1]: 1 Among its funding programs were a series of individual awards for people working in adult education to support training and field study experiences.[2] In addition to grantmaking to organizations and projects, the FAE also established its own programs, including the Test Cities Project and the Experimental Discussion Project.[1]: 2 Educational theorist Robert Maynard Hutchins helped to found the FAE, and educational television advocate C. Scott Fletcher served as its president.[1]: 8–9
