SDG&E Supports Teachers with Matching Funds for STEM Projects | SDG&E Today SDG&E Supports Teachers with Matching Funds for STEM Projects August 22, 2023 - 9:42 am This is the sixth year that SDG&E is supporting educators through the DonorsChoose Crowdfunding Platform SAN DIEGO, August 22, 2023 – With a new school year under way, San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) is providing $250,000 in shareholder funds as matching dollars to help teachers supplement classroom education with science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) projects.
This is the sixth year that SDG&E is partnering with DonorsChoose, an education nonprofit that empowers public school educators to post funding requests for their projects online and crowdfund donations for them. “For our region to thrive, it is important that we invest in building the next generation of scientists, engineers, doctors and other STEM professionals,” said SDG&E Community Relations Director Kazeem Omidiji.
“STEM education is crucial to developing solutions to society’s most pressing challenges. ” A long-standing advocate for STEM education and making it more accessible to students of all backgrounds, SDG&E first launched its partnership with DonorsChoose in 2018. The matching funds make it possible for teachers to enrich their students’ learning experiences without having to spend their own money to buy supplies, such as robotics kits.
According to DonorsChoose, teachers spend an average of $500 out of pocket on their classrooms each year. In support of educational equity, SDG&E will provide a double match (two to one) for eligible teacher projects at schools in disadvantaged communities as determined by the state’s CalEnviroScreen program . Eligible teachers can visit the DonorsChoose website to apply.
The DonorsChoose matching fund program will run from today until funds are exhausted. “SDG&E’s ongoing support provides teachers with much-needed resources to enrich the learning experiences for students across the region,” said San Diego County Superintendent of Schools Dr. Paul Gothold.
“Thanks to SDG&E’s focus on equity, students from schools serving low-income communities have expanded access to STEM learning projects that make a connection between academic subjects and real-world applications. ” Over the past five years, SDG&E has provided a total of $1. 4 million in matching funds to teachers for STEM projects.
To date, the STEM collaboration between SDG&E and DonorsChoose has supported more than 2,100 teachers at more than 1,000 schools in a few dozen school districts throughout SDG&E’s service territory in San Diego and southern Orange counties.

The Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Energy Office's University Training and Research program funds coal, oil and gas, and geothermal R&D at U.S. colleges and universities — but every proposal must include a non-academic partner and must build training modules that outlive the award. The LOI deadline is October 1, 2026, with full applications 15 days later. Here is what that compressed window means and why the workforce framing changes what a competitive proposal looks like.
Read articleThe Energy Department's $65.5 million oil and gas production and delivery NOFO splits across four topic areas with wildly different odds. Topic Area 3 alone carries $28 million for Hydrocarbon Infrastructure Test Sites at roughly $7 million per award over five years — and it requires a defined physical site you already control. Here is how the money is actually allocated.
