Already, students are exploring engineering concepts, designing prototypes, and discovering new confidence as young creators. For many of them, this is their first experience turning a sketch into something they can hold, examine, and improve. Watching their excitement as they learn and experiment is truly inspiring, and it would not have been possible without your kindness.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in the importance of STEM education and for investing in our students' futures.
