Support Rosie Riveters' STEM Initiative 2024
Tax deductible
We are working on a continued STEM initiative partnering with Rosie Riveters, a 501-3c, to fund free STEM programming to school-aged girls. Through this program, we're making STEM education accessible and providing a place to learn about Pro AV as a possible career path. Any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause!
Rosie Riveters' mission is to provide a fun space for girls ages 4-14 to imagine, create, and play while developing their skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Our organization is built on the premise that innovation is cultivated where experimentation is encouraged; that failure is not in conflict with success, but a necessary and crucial part of it.
Rosie Riveters' goal is to close the gender gap in STEM; in 2019 women made up only 27% of the science and engineering workforce in the U.S. Their innovative STEM curriculum works toward achieving gender equity in the field by engaging preschool to middle school girls in programs that build participants' critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and overall confidence in STEM via productive struggle.
To date, the organization has served more than 6,000 participants and achieved overwhelmingly positive results. According to cumulative data across all of our programs, 96% of participants enjoyed the program and projects and 71% were inspired to further explore STEM.
Funds will be used to create hundreds of hands-on and engaging STEM Kits for elementary-age girls (Kindergarten-5th Grade). Providing a rare, and oftentimes non-existent, opportunity for hands-on STEM learning and productive struggle for kit recipients.
