Schools in need
Apply to have CaveSim come to your school
We want everyone to get to experience CaveSim
We want all students, regardless of background, to be able to experience our programs. We wish that we could offer free programs to every school in the country, but there are real costs associated with hauling a 6-ton rig around the US while providing world-class educational programs. As a result, most schools and other organizations pay for our programs (see our very reasonable school program pricing). If your school just can’t afford our programs, we may be able to turn to our sponsors to help fund your program. Follow the steps below to bring CaveSim to your students.
-
Identify what funding you do have
Many schools receive Title I funding, or have organizations in the community that are willing to support our programs. Reach out to local businesses or non-profits to see who would be willing to provide support. Be sure to let these groups know that CaveSim recognizes all sponsors with traveling advertising for 12 months. -
Submit third-party grants
We have a list of organizations that support programs like ours, and we've even written example grant applications that you can tweak and submit. Just reach out to us if you need help, and be sure to include in your application the funding that you identified in step 1. -
SUbmit a cavesim funding request
There are lots of schools in need, and you can stand out from the rest by writing a compelling funding request for us to share with our sponsors. Chances are, if you spend just a bit of time writing a compelling story, we'll be able to find a sponsor to bring our program to you. Be sure to include any actions that you took and info that you gathered in the previous steps.
