Youth Board
In 2020, we voted in our Youth Committee Members with a seat at the Board to further develop leadership skills, while amplifying the voices of diverse young women interested in entering STEM fields. We look forward to see more young leaders breaking barriers in our communities and we’ll report more on this in 2021 with positive outcomes.
Ambassador Program
2020 was the inaugural year of the Ambassador Program. Supported by WSP, we welcomed four Ambassadors who worked really hard to raise funds during the #GivingTuesdayNow campaign, trying to outreach during the hard months of COVID-19 and facilitating the GO!stem program alongside professionals from GM and Salesforce Canada.
GO!stem Program
We are very happy to announce the continuous partnership with Salesforce Canada for the 6th year and happy to have welcomed GM Canada for the first time to our popular GO!stem program. Additionally, City of Toronto continues to take a major step forward to support the next generation of girls through the proclamation of hEr VOLUTION’s GO!stem Week.
STEMing UP Program
Despite the challenges this year brought upon us, our STEMing UP program has seen one of the best participations yet. We owe it all to our partners at Shopify, Slack, Citrix Canada and the Government of Canada, who stepped up to support not only with funding, but, with help in pivoting our program to virtual learning.
