SparkBox Initiative
Ignite Curiosity. Empower Learners.
Founded by Tolu Adewuyi, Philip Thang, and Gaby Martinez Gil, SparkBox Initiative is a hands-on STEM education initiative that delivers the fundamentals of engineering and science to students, especially in underfunded or overlooked schools, through engaging kits ("Sparkboxes") and guided lessons.
Why SparkBox?
We believe every student deserves access to high-quality STEM education. Too many schools lack the resources to teach science through hands-on exploration. That's where SparkBox comes in.
Our kits bridge the gap between theory and practice, turning abstract concepts into tangible experiences. We focus on equity, innovation, and fun—because learning should spark joy.
