RAFT Teams Up with Ross Stores Foundation to Enhance STEAM Education
At RAFT (Resource Area For Teaching), we are committed to ensuring that every student has the opportunity to engage in hands-on learning that ignites curiosity and fosters creativity. We are excited to share that, thanks to a substantial grant from the Ross Stores Foundation, we have been able to significantly expand our services to Title 1 schools across the Bay Area.
This generous grant has empowered us to bring our Maker Mobile directly to schools in the Alum Rock Union School District (ARUSD), reaching thousands of students who may not otherwise have access to innovative STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) education. With the Ross Stores Foundation's support, we’ve been able to provide students with interactive design challenges that encourage them to think critically, solve problems, and express their creativity in a fun and engaging way.

This grant has enabled us to break down barriers and ensure that all students, regardless of their socioeconomic status, have access to high-quality educational resources. By supporting RAFT, Ross Stores Foundation is investing in the future of our community, empowering the next generation of thinkers, innovators, and leaders.
