Wood Rodgers, Inc. launched the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Math) Team Community Action Program in 2019. The Community Action Program is a way for Wood Rodgers employees to support their local communities through hands-on volunteering and financial support.
Each tier provides paths for Wood Rodgers to support local students, educators, and organizations to encourage and stimulate STEAM careers.
Looking for engineers and other STEAM professionals to lend a helping hand (both virtually and in-person) with STEAM-related classroom activities, workshops, career fairs, and more? Our STEAM Team members are happy to help!
If you are part of a STEM- or STEAM-related non-profit organization in need of financial support, we would love to sponsor you! Let’s work together to make STEAM more affordable and accessible for our local communities.
Are you searching for long-term volunteers and sponsorships? Our Partnerships Tier offers both! We’ll work with you to create specific curriculum for your students, and provide the tools they need for success in STEAM.
Explore what it takes to become a civil engineer and land surveyor!

Thank you so much! I am the STEM for an entire elementary school and I am forever grateful for generous people like you! I have 300 of the most amazing future scientists and engineers you will ever meet! I teach everyone from the Kindergarten classes to the 5th graders and they all show a love for STEM! Because of you, my students are able to learn about electronic systems! I can not tell you how excited they were when I opened the boxes and showed them what you gave to our class! We haven't completed the robots yet but, they will be done very soon! Thanks again for choosing my students!
I can’t begin to express my gratitude. Through your partnership and support I will be able to carry out fun, engaging and collaborative projects through these 3D pens. I am excited to see what our steam students can do and their creativity come to life. Thank you so much!
I am SOOO excited to have been given this opportunity and it is all because of YOUR generosity! Thank you. I cannot wait to tell my students that they will actually get to learn how to use a real working microscope! Excited to see what my students will learn and how their curiosity will grow. This is what makes teaching amazing...fostering growth and the love of learning. Your generosity will teach my kids how important it is to be kind and helpful...just like you. Thank you for choosing us...we are VERY GRATEFUL!
Thank you so much for your amazing donation to my STEM lab. We will use these materials to infuse art into our curriculum and take our projects to higher level of interest. I can’t wait to introduce my students to the new materials you so generously donated. I can’t thank you enough!
Thank you so very much for your generosity! The positivity you have shared will elevate the learning experience of our science classroom in many ways, on many days, for students from all walks of life.
