Need for Sponsorship
The only ongoing funding for this conference pays the coordinator’s salary. All other aspects of the conference are supported by generous sponsors. Every year we must raise enough money through grants and donations to host the event and provide participants an inspiring program. Your generous support will make a difference to the teachers and students who participate.

Use of Funds
Donations are used for every aspect of holding this conference:

  • Site fees - main hall, breakout rooms, exhibit hall, green power offset
  • Lunch and refreshments for participants
