Project update! Since April, we have funded 27 new projects around the nation that will impact 6,512 students 😊 Want to help us reach even more students? Every donation makes a difference: ruraltechfund.org/donate/
We're incredibly grateful to @GTIAofficial for their generous $10,000 donation to the RTF during RejectionCon! This investment will help us bring technology and opportunity to even more students in rural communities.
We had an amazing 2025, thanks to you all! Take a moment to check out our work in our Annual Report: ruraltechfund.org/beyond-the-blu…
Derek Stice's students in Edmonson, KY, are designing, building, and testing compressed-air paper rockets with help from their 3D printer. “We had a great time, and many of them made modifications after their initial launch and improved their flight.” 🚀
We are thrilled to announce our 2026 Cyber Security Scholarship recipients! Meet these four amazing students here: ruraltechfund.org/meet-our-2026-…
Yesterday, RejectionCon wrapped up its final day. In total, they raised over $80,000 for our mission. This donation will have an enormous impact on our work, allowing us to reach so many more thousands of students. We are deeply grateful! ❤️
Ms. Burke in Washington, MO, wrote, "The students worked with the sensors and speed of the wheels to be able to get the robot to follow the line on the track. It was a lot of problem-solving and frustration, but their giggles when they finally got it to work were amazing."
Huge thanks to RejectionCon for donating 100% of ticket sales to RTF! Today at 4 PM ET, our own Chris Sanders will deliver the keynote, talking about what it means to be "that kid" and how to be one of "their people." You can still register: rejectioncon.com
Our Infinite Sky CubeSat Emulators are over 70,000 ft and climbing! We are excited for these classrooms to get back their experimental data. Follow along at aprs.fi/#!call=a%2FKD2…
Update! Search "KD2UJJ-13" to see the live map -- it is currently in the air!
Our current Infinite Sky STEM cohort has its high-altitude balloon launch today @ 10 AM ET! Once the balloon is in the air, you can follow its flight at aprs.fi. In the Track Callsign box, you'll type KD2UJJ. We are so excited for our Infinite Sky classrooms!
In Union City, MI, Ben Miller is helping students turn creativity into real-world STEM skills through 3D printing and hands-on problem solving. Read more about his classroom here: ruraltechfund.org/how-one-teache…
BattleBots are a hit in Zoarville, OH! 🤖⚙️ Students are testing bots, learning wiring, weapon positioning, and strategy, with a high school mentor helping along the way. The excitement and interest around the program has been incredible!
Ms. Cardwell's students in Sparta Middle School’s STEAM class wrapped a Hummingbird Coding unit, designing interactive toys, including a sound-reactive pink cat, a sensor-powered clock, a fully featured ambulance, a motorized boat, and more!
Students in Ms. Bober’s classroom became programmers and trainers, coding robot dogs to perform choreographed routines. The project sparked school-wide excitement, from voice-controlled backflips to parent night demos, blending creativity with coding!
TODAY is our scholarship application deadline!! Share with a student from a rural community interested in a computer science-related field with a security focus. $1000, 2 @SANSInstitute courses, and corresponding GIAC certification exams! ruraltechfund.org/rtf-scholarshi…
The deadline is almost here ⏰ Know a student from a rural community aiming to study computer science with a focus on security? Send them here 👉 ruraltechfund.org/rtf-scholarshi… @SANSInstitute
Graford ISD’s @VEXRobotics team had an incredible season 🤖 In their first year competing, Ms. Castillo's students qualified for both UIL State and for VEX State, where they finished an amazing 9th! Huge accomplishment for this team! 🎉
Ms. Sullivan's students in Seneca, KS, are doing incredible things! Using their grant for Micro:bits and servos, they created amazing, interactive pets.
We are thrilled to be part of the new @VEXRobotics course at Jennings High School in Jennings, LA! We can't wait to see what they are able to do 🤖
