Summary

Empowering the next generation through hands-on learning and sustainability is at the heart of this funding opportunity. Designed for educational programs that serve youth outside of traditional school hours, this grant supports the creation or improvement of lab spaces focused on environmental and STEM-based exploration. Whether it’s developing a green classroom, launching an energy-focused curriculum, or enhancing an existing science lab, the funding aims to provide access to interactive, real-world learning experiences.


Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, community groups, and schools offering out-of-school-time (OST) programming for middle and high school students. Priority is given to programs serving underrepresented or underserved populations, particularly in communities with limited access to STEM education resources. Funding can be used for equipment, materials, space upgrades, and staff development related to sustainability, environmental science, or climate-focused education.


The grant is available to applicants located in select areas across several U.S. states, including regions within the mid-Atlantic and Midwest. Applicants must demonstrate a clear plan to engage youth in topics such as renewable energy, biodiversity, conservation, water systems, or other environmentally driven learning themes. Projects should also reflect a strong commitment to equity and inclusion, with an emphasis on community impact.


Award amounts vary depending on project size and goals, and recipients are expected to report on their outcomes. This opportunity is part of an annual cycle, with awards announced once a year. It’s a great fit for organizations looking to scale their STEM and environmental learning efforts while deepening their impact on future innovators and changemakers.
