Broward and Palm Beach counties
Every classroom deserves a 3D printer.
Teachers in elementary, middle, and high schools apply. Donors fund the equipment. We buy it, deliver it, and show you what students make with it.
How it works
- 1
A teacher applies
Tell us about your students, what they will build, and which package you need. It takes about 15 minutes.
- 2
We review
We score every application on need, student reach, and the plan, and confirm it with your principal.
- 3
Donors fund it
Approved classrooms are funded from our general fund or by a donor or sponsor who picks your classroom.
- 4
We buy and deliver
We purchase the equipment ourselves and ship it to your school. No cash changes hands.
- 5
Students make things
After 90 days you send a few photos of student work and a short note. We share it with the people who paid for it.

Costs are planning estimates. We ask vendors for education pricing and confirm real costs at purchase.
Teachers, this is for you.
If your students would design, prototype, and build with the right tools, apply. You don't need any 3D printing experience. Every package includes setup help.
