LA Makerspace, Imagination.org Merges With Two Bit Circus Foundation

Two, Los Angeles-area nonprofits aimed at the "maker" and technology education market--LA Makerspace and Imagination.org, said late Thursday that they have merged with the Two Bit Circus Foundation, the nonprofit created by Two Bit Circus to promote STEAM education. The three said that by combining their efforts, they will be able to "increase efficiency and greatly broaden their program offerings" and also provide services to an expanded range of communities. All three are focused on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) education. The groups said the merger came as a result of the Nonprofit Sustainability Initiative of the California Community Foundation, and specifically will help reduce overhead and increase impact of the groups.
