Help Turn 40 Years of Impact Into a Lifetime of Opportunity
For 40 years, the SAE Foundation has worked to ensure that every student, no matter their background or zip code, has access to high-quality, hands-on STEM education.
When students see themselves as problem-solvers, innovators, and leaders, they don’t just learn science and math. They discover their power.
Your support fuels this vision. It opens doors, sparks possibility, and builds a future where opportunity is not a privilege, but a promise.
A Legacy Fueled by Possibility
In the early 1980s, a small group of engineers asked a bold question: What if every student, not just a select few, had access to real-world STEM experiences that could shape their future?
That vision launched the SAE Foundation and sparked a movement that continues to grow. What began with a few hands-on learning kits has become a global effort to ignite curiosity, build confidence, and close opportunity gaps through STEM.
Your support:
Provides award-winning STEM programs that make learning feel possible.
Enables students to lead with bold ideas and bright futures.
Helps teachers feel equipped and inspired.
Empowers industry volunteers to light the way.
Today, we invite you to help shape the next 40 years and beyond.
