Ed Tech Grants
Osmo Launching $2,000 STEAM Education Mini-Grants
Beginning
July 1, public schools will be eligible to apply for one of 20
mini-grants designed to promote STEAM education.
Osmo
for Schools and Osmo
Cares, the philanthropic arm of Osmo,
will offer $2,000 in Osmo for Schools products, which include a range
of STEAM education kits for classrooms, to 20 schools. The kits are
designed for early learning and elementary classrooms and support
iPad and/or Fire tablets. (The tablets are not included as part of
the grant.)
“Osmo
for Schools is so thrilled to offer 20 mini-grants for the first time
ever,” says Jan Richards, head of education sales and marketing at
Osmo for Schools, the division of Tangible Play that promotes
in-classroom usage of Osmo’s devices. “We know there are many
schools across the country which lack needed funding to purchase
educational technology, so we decided to give 20 schools a gift.
Their students and teachers will have something to look forward to
when they return to in-person learning this fall.”
The
application period will run July 1–17. Winners will be announced in
August. Further details can be found at schools.playosmo.com/grants.
