Welcome to the DonorsChoose.org STEM Lab, supported by AT&T! The STEM Lab is a platform for teachers to look for ideas, to create innovative classroom projects, and to bring resources to students that reinforce career-readiness and real-world application through hands-on learning. Through the Lab, AT&T is doubling donations for projects that focus on science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Each month, the most innovative classroom projects will be eligible to receive additional funding.

Grant Criteria:

  • Only requests submitted after 3/4/19 will be considered.
  • AT&T will match donations to projects costing 1,000 (about $850 in materials cost).
  • Projects submitted in the following subject areas will be considered: Math & Science (applied sciences and mathematics only).
  • Educators should use campaign code ATTSTEMLAB when creating a project.
  • Curious if your project was selected for additional funding? See below! Projects with a 5x match offer indicate that they were selected.
  • Projects will be reviewed for additional funding on a monthly basis at the end of the month.
  • After you submit your project share your innovative ideas for STEM learning on social using #attstemlab.
