With National Grid’s support, we’ve partnered with charities, outreach groups and school districts to provide engaging, hands-on STEM learning kits to children across the metro region. With their help, we’re thrilled to bring our at-home engineering activities to young learners and their families across Massachusetts, including a number of students in grades K-6 who go to school at Columbus Park Elementary School in Worcester. 

As part of our project with National Grid to distribute our engineering Try It! Kits to families across Massachusetts, we are excited to share a recent distribution event supporting youth through the Office for Refugees and Immigrants.

We’d like to extend an enormous thank you to National Grid for their generous donation that supports the distribution of our engineering Try It! Kits to families across Eastern Massachusetts! 

Federal and private grants offer educators the opportunity to enrich their learners and their staff by providing crucial funding for new activities, curricula, materials and more. So whether you’re looking to finance new science textbooks or get new computers for the computer lab, we’ve gathered some funding opportunities to help. 

The Museum of Science and EiE are committed to closing the STEM opportunity gap for girls, students of color, and students from rural and low socioeconomic backgrounds. As part of that commitment, we have a full-time team dedicated to building partnerships and seeking funding to support under-resourced schools and community organizations.
