Spotlight Fund Grants - STEM Fund

The Spotlight Fund Grants, specifically the STEM Fund, provide essential funding for K-12 educators to enhance their curriculum with necessary tools and materials for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math education. Aimed at supporting under-served communities, these grants typically range from $500 to $1,000 per educator, with a cap of $5,000 per school. Priority is given to educators from high-needs schools, ensuring equitable access to quality STEM education.

Spotlight Funds are a grant program for K-12 educators. Each fund supports a specific subject area, or addresses a need facing K-12 educators and students.
Educators who receive a Spotlight Fund Grant can use the funds to order the tools and materials they need to support their curriculum and meet their students’ needs.
The STEM Fund (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) helps educators access the tools and materials needed to incorporate a rich, experiential STEM-based curriculum in their classrooms. Many schools are not equipped to meet this need, particularly those in under-served communities.
