We know the funding landscape is tough right now. That’s why we are even more pleased than usual to share three funding and resource opportunities for Association of Science and Technology Centers (ASTC) members*.
These opportunities are exclusively for ASTC members that join the IF/THEN® Champions Network—a national U.S. collaboration between ASTC and the National Girls Collaborative Project (NGCP), supported by the Lyda Hill Philanthropies initiative, IF/THEN®. The network connects and supports individuals and organizations committed to amplifying the visibility of women in STEM. By helping girls and others see what is possible, we can help young people imagine—and achieve—their STEM dreams.
Joining the network is easy and free. Fill out your organization’s application and commitment form to be eligible for the following opportunities:
- $1,500 travel stipend and/or registration support for the 2025 ASTC Conference in San Francisco from September 5-8
- $750 program stipends to support events that highlight IF/THEN® Collection resources
- Two free exhibit kits, including one play-based exhibit featuring three IF/THEN® Ambassadors
Join the IF/THEN® Champions Network today to apply for these opportunities by 11:59 p.m. PT on Monday, July 7 to inspire the next generation of STEM leaders!
