Help me give my students resources to explore Science and STEM careers through hands-on exploration.

My Project

Many of my students are curious about the world around them, and I want to provide them with the opportunity to dive into STEM activities that will introduce them to exciting STEM careers. From building basic circuits to experimenting with forces and motion, these engaging projects will allow them to imagine themselves as future scientists, engineers, and mathematicians.

My students are from a low-income area and have limited access to materials that can make STEM come alive.

We need hands-on kits and tools that will let my students experience the excitement of STEM while learning about real-world careers in fields like engineering, computer science, and space exploration. These materials will provide endless opportunities for my students to dream big and imagine themselves in roles that are changing the world today.
