CFEF was among 100 K-12 programs across the United States to receive funding from the Motorola Solutions Foundation for the 2011-12 school year.  The $50,000 grant will enable 10 CFEF member foundations to inspire students through projects designed to help them solve real-world problems in science, math, technology and engineering (STEM) areas.   

"The future of American innovation depends on a diverse pipeline of critical thinkers who are well versed in STEM principles,” said Matt Blakely, director of the Motorola Solutions Foundation, the charitable arm of Motorola Solutions, Inc.  "Through the Innovation Generation program, we are thrilled to partner with organizations like CFEF to provide students and teachers with the necessary tools to explore their STEM interests and pursue innovation.”

Congratulations to our winning foundations!
