National Lab Day is a nationwide initiative to build local communities of support that will foster ongoing collaborations among volunteers, students and educators. Learn more.

NLD is the ultimate educational matchmaker. Teachers and educators can post a project on our website to request STEM professionals, volunteers or even financial support (through Donorschoose.org). While there is an actual Lab Day every May 12th to celebrate our accomplishments, National Lab Day is a year-long promotional effort and the network is growing every day — join us!

National Lab Day is more than just a day - it's a movement. NLD is bringing hands-on, exciting, and experiment-based learning to kids all over the country.

TEACHERS: After signing up, teachers and educators can post a project on our site. Then they can communicate with STEM professionals and volunteers on NLD to make their projects a reality.

SCIENTISTS/VOLUNTEERS: Any STEM professional or general community participant interested in facilitating hands-on learning can join NLD and search for the best project for their skills, timeframe, and location.

ORGANIZATIONS: Organizations can now sign up for NLD as well! Organizations can host events, and reach out to their members in support of NLD. Any type of organization can join and help the movement.

Everyone can lend support to NLD in their own way. Whether you sign up as a teacher, STEM professional, organization, or volunteer, you can create your own personalized "MYNLD" page. On this page you can show your support for NLD projects.
