Acquiring new educational STEM solutions shouldn’t be a burden for school leaders and teachers. Eduporium’s monthly grant program makes things easier. Every calendar month, we award two $500 EdTech grants to deserving educators, 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 at the same time from our store, making innovation in your school more streamlined than ever.
Whether you've been searching for technology, STEM, or makerspace grants or exploring options for funding afterschool programs, we've got 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.

Project:
As a teacher in a rural community, Laura Bishop hopes to see transformative results in her middle school students by integrating a 3D printer into the STEM curriculum. Using a Flashforge 3D printer, her students will be able to turn abstract concepts into tangible models, helping them develop a deeper understanding of engineering and design principles. The 3D printer will allow students to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, inspiring them to pursue further studies in STEM fields. By providing access to cutting-edge technology, Laura hopes to boost students' confidence and engagement while contributing to the growth and development of their community.

Project:
Mays Chapel Elementary School offers a weekly computer science special area course for K-5. When working with young computer scientists, using physical devices helps make abstract concepts tangible and encourages engagement and motivation! Bethany Berkowitz hopes to add Ozobot Magnet Sets and EdSketch packs to her class supplies to provide young learners with more freedom when working with Ozobot and Edison. The Ozobot Magnet Sets would allow the youngest students and those who struggle with fine motor skills to access Ozobot challenges while integrating concepts from the regular curriculum. Meanwhile, the EdSketch packs help second grade students to code Edison to draw various shapes. These projects will prepare students for the school's STEM Showcase in March.
Our grant is open to all educators in the United States! 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 contact the recipient directly, then announce the news on our Twitter account, email newsletter, and blog.
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. Once awarded, recipients must use their grant within three months (90 days) from the award date. Recipients may use their grant award on any of the hundreds of STEM, MakerEd, and computing technologies available on the Eduporium store. If your selection total is above the $500 grant amount, the remaining total may be paid by credit card or purchase order.
