Create Action & STEM Greenhouse: Cultivating Education & Career Success

Several months ago we announced STEM Greenhouse as the winner of a Sony Create Action grant. The Michigan-based nonprofit’s mission is to grow STEM proficiency in vulnerable children to cultivate education and career success. As grant recipients, STEM Greenhouse receives $50,000 in cash to continue and expand the organization's work, this Sony-produced short film telling their story and $50,000 in Sony Electronics products to support their action plan.

Learn more about Create Action grant winner STEM Greenhouse and their work to help build a diverse, globally competitive STEM community through equity.

Serving K-12 students in low-income, minority neighborhoods in Grand Rapids, Michigan and targeting schools that lack adequate support for STEM education in the classroom, STEM Greenhouse offers a number of programs to help build a diverse, globally competitive STEM community through equity.

The nonprofit’s signature after-school program for middle school students, STEM Scholars, utilizes evidence-based practices identified by the National Science Foundation to address racial and socioeconomic disparities in STEM disciplines. The program develops a pipeline of students who transition from middle school to high school understanding the importance and relevance of STEM to their future and having the self-efficacy and interest necessary to attempt and succeed in STEM related coursework.

The second year of the Create Action Grant Program is now open through March 2023 and will provide grants to 10 organizations total, with one new grant awarded each month. After initial submission, each application will be within consideration throughout the entirety of the program.
