Become a sponsor to MakerFriends
MakerFriends
Help us ⚡ spark a Million Maker Moments!
MakerFriends publishes free, open STEM and STEAM projects that connect kids, parents, educators, and hobbyists with hands-on learning. Your sponsorship funds new build guides, classroom-ready kits, community challenges, and the friendly robot-dog spirit behind MakerFriends.
1 sponsor has funded MakerFriends’s work.
It would help open the 🌎 world to STEM/STEAM students if we could get our first 10 monthly sponsors! Sponsorship will help us to develop our STEM/STEAM kits and continue moving forward in our journey of lifting the level of understanding and practical use of science, technology, engineering, art and math.
