Educational

Technology Grant

Organization:

Paul W. Bell Middle School STEM Peer Tutoring Program

Grades:

Middle School

Products:

FlashForge Materials

Project:

Teaching in Miami, Cynthia works with many students who are considered to be traditionally underserved so, by combining STEM opportunities with some of the most exciting natural features in their area, she'll be working with middle school students to create an interactive oceanic ecosystem for their courtyard - complete with 3D printed QR codes that passersby can scan and pull up information on different types of animals.

Discovering and acquiring new educational STEM solutions shouldn't be a burden for school leaders and teachers. Eduporium's monthly grant program makes things a little bit easier. Every calendar month, we award one $500 EdTech grant to a deserving educator, helping to build 21st century learning environments and better equipping students with the hard and soft skills they need for the future. Best of all, educators can purchase all the technology from our store, making innovation in your school community easier than ever.

Whether you've been searching for technology, STEM, or makerspace grants or exploring options for funding afterschool programs, we have you covered. We're looking for educators who have demonstrated innovation and creativity within their school community, those who have a financial need, and those who can provide a clear and concise plan for implementing new instructional technology tools within six months. If selected as a recipient of our technology grant for teachers, you'll have your choice of any items on our store within the $500 price range -- from educational robots to STEM and SEL tools or anything you need for expanding your makerspace curriculum.

Our grant is open to all educators in the United States and we encourage everyone to apply! The application process opens on the first of each month and concludes on the 20th. Following the 20-day submission period, our team will review all new grant applications and notify the awardee by the last business day of the month. We will announce the recipient via our Twitter account, email newsletter, blog, and contact the person directly. While you can apply for grants as often as you'd like, educators may only apply for the Eduporium grant once per month with one application per person. Those awarded the grant are then ineligible to apply for one calendar year. Recipients may use their grant award on any of the hundreds of STEM, MakerEd, and computing technologies available on the Eduporium store .

Robotics and Coding Kits

STEM Action Grants

The STEM Action Grant program provides small grants of up to $5,000 to innovative nonprofit organizations led by social entrepreneurs

The STEM Action Grant program aims to bolster and support community-driven nonprofit organizations that are working to enhance the public's understanding of science and to increase participation of underrepresented populations in STEM fields. Since 2016, the Society has awarded $586,000 to 85 organizations wanting to improve access to STEM education.

"The funding allowed our organization to provide the community with access to free STEM activities. We provided over 100 hours of STEM activities and five field trips designed to educate and inspire a population of youth who are historically underserved and underrepresented in STEM."

Black Girls Dive

"Weeks before the scheduled program, Puerto Rico was devastated by two hurricanes, leaving much of the island was without power. However, a brave group from Guaynabo gathered technology and students together to participate in a virtual field trip. It was amazing to see the students so eager to learn in the midst of what was happening around them"
