About Children Across America
Children Across America is a nonprofit organization dedicated to expanding access to STEM and literacy education for children ages 4–11. Through hands-on robotics, coding, and creative STREAM learning (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Arts, and Math), we help children build confidence, creativity, and real-world problem-solving skills.
Children Across America has an established STEM program serving children ages 4–11 and is actively expanding our Girls Love to Code initiative.
This project helps support programs like Girls Love to Code, which introduces girls ages 4–11 to coding, robotics, and technology.
Our programs include a free Saturday STREAM program as well as a summer STREAM and Girls Love to Code club designed to give children early exposure to technology and engineering.
Position Overview

Why This Role Matters
Grant funding allows Children Across America to provide free STREAM education programs to children who might not otherwise have access to robotics, coding, and technology learning opportunities.
Your work will directly support programs like Girls Love to Code and help expand educational opportunities for young learners.
Students, early-career professionals, and experienced grant writers looking to support a meaningful cause are all encouraged to apply.
This is also a great opportunity to build a portfolio of grant writing work while making a real impact.
Priority will be given to volunteers with experience in education, STEM, or youth program funding.
