    Summary

    Colocation America proudly supports the development and integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) learning opportunities for youth in the communities they serve. One of the ways they support these activities is by funding innovative STEM youth programs. 


    The STEM Innovation Grant was created to fund programs that inspire and encourage Pre-K-12 students to pursue their interest and curiosity in STEM.


    The STEM Grant Selection Committee is looking to fund programs or projects that offer students:

    • An innovative (i.e. unique) approach to learning STEM
    • Developmentally-appropriate STEM curriculum and/or resources
    • Activities that support real-life application of STEM knowledge

    STEM Innovation Grants support funding innovative pilot programs as well as long-proven STEM programs around the U.S.
