Supporting STEM-based outreach and education is easy!

Both cash and material, non-cash donations help us fulfill our mission of delivering fun, STEM-based education and outreach to Idahoans.

Material donations may be new, old, outdated or just plain broken. We’ll either refurbish them to sell, use them in our workshops and outreach, dismantle them for parts and/or recycle them responsibly. Businesses, institutions and individuals are all invited to participate. As a registered 501(c)(3), Reuseum Ed can provide donation receipts for both consumer and business donations.
