We are expanding S.T.E.A.M. Collective to Kern County!

S.T.E.A.M. Collective is the center for science, technology, engineering, arts, and math education for the 21st century.

This program is powered by Hacker Fund and its team of mentors from 150+ of the top technology companies in the world. In May 2026, the program is expanding to the Central Valley of California, starting with the community in the City of Bakersfield.

Join us in raising funds for our first event in Kern County on May 30th, Hack the Valley 2026, where we will be empowering youth to invent the future that best serves our communities!
