“Osmo for Schools is so thrilled to offer 20 mini-grants for the first time ever,” said Jan Richards, head of education sales and marketing at Osmo for Schools, in a news release. “We know there are many schools across the country which lack needed funding to purchase educational technology, so we decided to give 20 schools a gift.
