NEB Educator Laboratory Materials Support Application

 Educator Laboratory Materials Support Program Application
Terms and Conditions
 
Purpose
To support science educators passionate about bringing hands-on biology experiences into their classrooms, who otherwise have limited access to basic laboratory equipment, supplies, reagents, and instructional materials (individually and collectively, Laboratory Materials), with a focus on assisting underserved communities.
 
Description
The NEB STEM and Mentorship DE&I committees (Committee) at New England Biolabs, Inc. (NEB) offer financial support up to $1500 to purchase Laboratory Materials to eligible science educators selected by the Committee at its sole discretion (Recipient(s)), who demonstrate a need for Laboratory Materials to be used in their classroom for biology course(s) (Course).
 
Laboratory Materials
Each applicant will provide a list of Laboratory Materials which are needed for Course support up to $1500 in value. If awarded, the Committee will then purchase the Laboratory Materials, on Recipient’s behalf, up to the maximum value of the determined and allocated financial support (Support), and will deliver, at the Committee’s expense, the Laboratory Materials to the Recipient’s school to be used by the Recipient for teaching in Recipient’s Course(s).
 
Eligibility
Applicants must be a middle school or high school science educator teaching in an accredited school located in the United States (US), the District of Columbia (DC), or Puerto Rico (PR) during the current or upcoming school year in which the application is submitted. An applicant may only submit one (1) application for any academic school year. Only one (1) application per school will be considered.
