"Let's go to DI Globals!"

Donation protected

This group of dynamic middle schoolers call themselves the YETI's (Yellow Elephant, Tutu Incorporated). They will represent Minnesota as they participate in the Destination Imagination Global Finals in May — the world’s largest celebration of student creativity. More than 1,400 of the top-scoring DI teams, from 45+ U.S. states and 15+ countries will gather in Kansas City to showcase their innovative performance and STEM based challange solutions. You can click to learn more about the Game On! Challange in which they will compete and click to watch the Yeti Regional Peformance that earned them a place at State.

Destination Imagination is a leader in project-based learning opportunities that blends STEM education with the arts and social entrepreneurship. DI dedicates itself to enriching the global community by providing opportunities for learners of all ages to explore and discover using the creative process from imagination to innovation. You can learn more about the program at, www.destinationimagination.org/

These girls have participated together since 3rd grade and have worked very hard this year to secure a spot for their team at globals, in this very difficult middle-age category. They are proud of their accomplishment and excited to compete. This Go Fund Me campaign is intended to subsidize the registration costs, estimated at upward of 5k, not including travel and accommodations to KC.

Please consider supporting the team by contributing monetarily and also by sharing the fundraising campaign with your network.  Participation in this program has already proven to teach these girls teamwork, confidence and accountability. The future benefit to their skill building is seemingly limitless and they are all genuinely grateful for the opportunities DI offers them.
