Wisconsin Partners

Project Lead The Way in Wisconsin is successful because of the cooperation and encouragement it receives from different kinds of organizations. All of them see the value of increasing STEM education and promoting scientific based careers.

Statewide Support

Kern Family Foundation

The Waukesha, Wisconsin-based Kern Family Foundation is committed to its mission of preparing students for the challenges of the 21st century through values, education and innovation. In its five-year history of supporting K-12 STEM initiatives, the Foundation has invested $10 million in grant awards. These awards have primarily gone to more than 300 schools in Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota as start-up support for their implementation of PLTW.

They contribute financially, in-kind hours, expertise, volunteers and materials. PLTW is grateful they recognize the value of STEM education and for their contributions.
