  • (1888PressRelease) March 02, 2017 - PledgeCents, Inc., is on a mission to make education technology more accessible for teachers and schools, while helping ensure that more of donors' money can be put to work rather than be spent on fundraising costs. The site, which aims to bring resources and opportunities to students across the country by alleviating funding needs, continues to expand its Preferred Partner Program to better collaborate with education companies to make this idea a reality. The most recent partner is Dremel, who is bringing their 3D Idea Builder printers to the PledgeCents Marketplace.

    "3D printing has come a long way in education in the last few years and we love the creativity and innovation that they bring to the classroom and the makerspace movement," said Andyshea Saberioon, co-founder and CEO. "To be able to partner with a global leader in technology like Dremel is humbling for us and will allow us to not only offer affordable 3D printers, but also Dremel's curriculum-based lesson plans, 1:1 support and easy implementation for our teachers. We are excited to help more and more teachers create interactive, hands-on learning opportunities for their makers when they fund their Dremel 3D Idea Builders!"

    Through the partnership, teachers and schools will be able to utilize PledgeCents to seamlessly generate a fundraising page to cover the cost of the Dremel 3D Idea Builder printers. The PledgeCents team works with each fundraiser to help raise the necessary funds and will purchase the products needed immediately after the fundraiser ends to expedite the process. Anyone interested can visit http://www.pledgecents.com/signup/event/dremel to create their own page today.

    "Through our partnership with PledgeCents, the boundless learning possibilities of 3D printing and the Dremel 3D Idea Builder will be accessible to more students and teachers," said Rafael Franca, Manager of Dremel 3D Education. "Every student and school deserves equal learning experiences and we are committed to providing teachers the products and resources they need to make that happen."

    The Dremel 3D Idea Builder expands the brand's reach from the workshop to the classroom to provide educators and students with cutting-edge technology for STEM education. Built upon the brand's dedication to empowering makers through creativity, precision, and project enjoyment, the Dremel 3D Idea Builder nurtures student confidence by giving them a tool to design and build their own models to understand lessons. With available curriculum to draw connections between 3D printing and instruction, Dremel is providing educators with the support they need to transform classrooms.
