We ask our LRIG-New England members to help us reach an even larger group of educators in the New England area by passing on our information to your local 8th grade through high school STEM based educator who are in need of external funding to support education in your area.  Please take a few moments and help us to continue to extend our reach and desire to support STEM based students focused on laboratory applications and automation technologies by sharing the link to our 2023 Marsha Paul Education Grant.  We are planning on awarding even more education grants this year and would appreciate the assistance of our members as we strive to achieve this goal.

Sincerely,
