Thank you for your intent to propose for the
2025 FIRST® STEM Equity Community Innovation Grant
All students need equitable access to opportunity, relevant mentorship,
and engagement to build a foundation for a bright future.
Through the 2025 STEM Equity Community Innovation Grant, FIRST® is awarding up to 20 communities with $10,000 to $30,000 in funding to improve access and inclusion through training, disability inclusion tools, and resources.
Grantees will help students from all walks of life develop self-confidence in STEM and valuable, real-world skills – such as digital literacy, teamwork, leadership, creative problem solving, and project management – that open pathways to all career choices and outcomes.
Learn all of the details and requirements for proposals in the 2025 Request for Proposal.
Proposal submissions are due by Tuesday, January 21, 2025, 11:59 p.m. ET.
Thank you to our sponsors for their generous support and commitment to Equity, Diversity & Inclusion at FIRST.
Their support enables us to explore, develop and implement strategies to become more inclusive
and ensure access to our program for all students.
