We have $1,000 left to raise towards our goal! With supporters like you, we are confident that we can make this happen!
Will you make a contribution before it is too late and help us unlock our generous 1:1 match of $5,000?
In 2023, our In School Speaker Series, where we connect STEM professionals with classrooms, reached 6,000 students in N. Arizona! These presentations are so meaningful because students get to meet real scientists one on one. Connections like this can change the course of a young person’s life.
One of our speakers told us, “I shared [with the class] that I was not the greatest student in high school, and wasn’t even really interested in science. I didn’t get serious until I found the subject I loved in college, kind of by accident, and I ended up being very successful and working on NASA missions. My point was that there are many paths, and it isn’t always the smartest, nerdiest kid in your class that ends up in these careers – there is room for lots of different types of folks. And the students seemed to really enjoy hearing that. I think I was able to connect and be real and give them a new outlook regarding their future possibilities.”
Now is your final chance to make a difference. Your donation can broaden the possibilities in a STEM field for a young person. Consider making your year-end contribution, this Giving Tuesday, toward STEM education opportunities!
