Here is what a STEMing UP student had to say about how the program empowered her: 

“When I think about all the female engineers who have told me “I wish I had this opportunity when I was your age” makes me realize how far we’ve come, but it also reminds me of how much progress we as a society still need to make — I want to help bridge the gender gap in STEM as an aspiring engineer.”

Use your holiday giving power to empower the next generation of girls to develop the confidence and independence to be leaders in STEM. This givingTuesday consider becoming a monthly donor to help support the next generation of leaders.  

A donation of $65 will subsidize the internet cost for one household for one month.
