Community Giving (New Jersey Locations): Improving Science Education Grants

_NOTE: We accept requests year-round. For all community giving applications, we strongly urge you to submit your application at least 12 weeks in advance of the date of required funding. Funding decisions are announced by letter to recipient organizations.

Supporting Our Communities

That’s why we support programs and organizations that address unmet medical needs, help students grow through STEM education, and deliver basic human services to our neighbors.

Improving Science Education

Because today’s students will discover tomorrow’s medicines, we’re committed to improving science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) studies in schools and community organizations.

Through grants and other programs, we've introduced students to genetics, robotics, engineering, alternative energy, and environmental science.

We're improving science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education in the communities where our employees work and live.
