Announcing IF/THEN® Gender Equity Project

Funding Available for Gender Equity Projects in Public Libraries!

With support from Lyda Hill Philanthropies and the IF/THEN® Initiative, the Association of Science and Technology Centers (ASTC) is now accepting applications for Gender Equity Engagement Grants for public libraries in the United States to support projects that address gender equity in STEM, including efforts to increase visual representation through the use of photos and videos featuring women and gender minorities in STEM careers.

ASTC will award grants of up to $4,000 to approximately 90 applicants in the United States. Grantees will select a project from the IF/THEN® Project Library to replicate at their own institution. Grants will be awarded on a rolling basis until all funds are awarded.

The IF/THEN® project library features pop-up banner exhibits, downloadable videos, program outlines, and more. All content is designed to highlight women and gender minorities in real STEM careers and can be modified to fit your organization’s needs.

Visit the ASTC website for details about requirements, to preview the application, or to apply. If you have questions about the application process, please reach out to the ASTC team at ifthen@astc.org.
