Providing classroom STEM grants to PreK-12 educators across the U.S. 

PreK-12 Teachers: Register your classroom on AdoptAClassroom.org to apply for our classroom grants.

Tomorrow’s innovators need STEM learning resources today.

Adequate funding for STEM programs can be a real challenge for PreK-12 schools, which is why we created the AdoptAClassroom.org STEM Fund. Donations to this fund provide STEM grants to PreK-12 educators so they can purchase STEM learning materials to help their students succeed in school and beyond.

Our STEM grants ensure students across the country receive access to the materials they need to learn and participate in science, technology, engineering, and math subjects. We’ve funded innovative classroom STEM initiatives that are preparing students for future careers while having fun learning and engaging with difficult subjects and lessons.

Your tax-deductible donation advances equity in STEM education, one classroom at a time. Make a donation here.

Students Benefited


“These funds will convert our outdoor classroom into an agricultural experiment station. Students can learn horticulture, crop production and perform research experiments on crop yield, soil health, crop fertilizers and other research that is pertinent in agriculture today. These skills will prepare students for various jobs in agriculture and research.”

Dr. Loutrina S., 7th Grade Science Teacher and $1,000 STEM Grant Recipient

“I envision this additional funding transforming my classroom into a room of Robotics/Coding Centers. Each center will involve a different robot type and a different level of coding challenge. All students will be engaged, rather than some students just observing and losing interest.”

Scott D., Elementary School STEM Teacher and $1,000 STEM Grant Recipient

“Thank you for making my lessons come to life through this AdoptAClassroom.org STEM Grant. The materials purchased will be used to teach lessons that develop a student’s understanding of algorithms, statements, sequences, loops, conditions and functions to solve a problem. This grant will provide my students with the opportunity to experiment and learn without barriers.”

Jill B., Elementary School STEAM Lab Teacher and $1,000 STEM Grant Recipient
