Programs
STEM Sprouts
Our STEM Sprouts program is an Early Education STEM program designed to introduce young children, typically between the ages of 3 and 10, to the foundational concepts and skills within STEM fields. Our program aims to foster curiosity, critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and a love for learning in children from a very early age.
STEM Stars
Our STEM Stars program supports Middle and High School Advanced STEM programs. Programming can take place before, during, or after school or during the summer. We want to encourage programs that are successfully preparing interested students for their intended college major in STEM by exposing them to advanced topics in science, engineering, computer science, and more.
STEM Scholars
Our STEM Scholars program is a post-secondary initiative aimed at providing colleges and universities with the funding and flexibility to start, grow and/or expand underfunded STEM programs. Funding can support many activities and initiatives including student organizations and club activities, career management counselors, showcases, research projects, camps, Tech Talks, and Lecture Series.
Teen Tech Competitions
Grants supporting STEM-focused organizations that are interested in creating or continuing a tech competition for local youth. Organizations would be required to operate under certain (but flexible) parameters and are encouraged to let the participating students design the competition’s layout. We believe in the power of collaboration and competition and want to empower our future doctors, developers, engineers and scientists to forge their own paths.
Through our STEM Programs, we hope to inspire and transform the current STEM ecosystem. We want young people all over the country to think of STEM as a necessity for understanding not only their career options, but understanding their cars, their homes and their finances. A robust STEM understanding is vital to a prosperous life.
What began as an idea has evolved into something more. We’re proud of the initiatives we’ve created and funding and even more excited for what’s ahead. What sets us apart isn’t just our process—it’s the intention behind it. We take time to understand, explore, and create programs with purpose.
