Founded in 1990 with support from Toshiba Corporation and the Toshiba America Group Companies, Toshiba America Foundation (TAF) is committed to making STEM learning engaging and accessible for U.S. students. Through funding projects and materials for innovative STEM education, TAF aims to ensure all students can succeed in science and mathematics with the right tools and instruction.
The Toshiba America Foundation (TAF) grant program supports innovative projects in math and science classrooms. Focused on projects designed by teachers or small teams of teachers for their own schools, the grants aim to bring hands-on, experiential learning to students. The foundation funds projects in public and nonprofit private schools across the U.S., encouraging proposals that ignite students' natural curiosity, allow them to pose their own scientific questions, and involve community partners. TAF's grants are specifically available for K-5 grade teachers looking to introduce new and inventive teaching methods into their curriculum.
