Thank you for renewing your financial gift! You have an opportunity to ignite a sense of wonder, imagination, and self-assurance in children who may otherwise not have access to STEM-related learning experiences.

With your support, YO-STEM can:

ENGAGE students like Joshua, a 6^th grader challenged by autism and ADHD. We at YO-STEM found a way for Joshua to participate in robotics, he became our coder, and we all won big. His coding skills helped Team Radium win trophies at two local school competitions this year and garner a special judges award at the state level!

EDUCATE kids who aren’t even aware of their options. Kids like AyMarri, who just knew he liked science. Now, after two years in YO-STEM activities, AyMarri has competed in the state and national VEX Robotics championships and has plans to become an aerospace engineer.

EMPOWER girls, so they have the confidence and freedom to explore their gifts. Fifth grader Lilia’s dad told us, “My daughter really enjoys YO-STEM because it doesn’t bring the pressures of school. She can have fun without the worries of being graded, and she can legitimately explore.”

On behalf of our entire YO-STEM family of students, volunteers, and staff, I offer our warmest holiday wishes and our deep appreciation for your past and future support.

With gratitude,

Candice E. Halbert

President/Founder

P.S. Give today and create pathways to academic and career success for every child, regardless of their gender, race, or zip code!

$105 can enable outreach efforts to connect underserved students in the community with the exciting world of STEM through hands-on experiences.

$73 covers the cost of one session of our competitive robotics program, which covers everything from coding to constructing, for a classroom full of enthusiastic kids.

$212 makes it possible for us to provide one month of free STEM Saturday sessions for innovative and excited youth!
