My Story…
Scientists in School is more focused than ever to ensure that all children in Canada are provided with life-shaping opportunities to explore and discover science. Equity and inclusion is paramount for our charity, and we work hard to provide workshops to schools in low income areas, realizing that families in these communities have been hit hardest by the pandemic. We have worked hard over the summer to develop virtual workshops that retain our hands-on format with children discovering science for themselves; being lead in real time by a science professional. With our Virtual workshops, we can reach all children in Alberta, from the largest cities to rural schools in remote corners of the province. Our goal is for all children - rural, urban, affluent or those growing up in poverty - to believe they can dream big and achieve the impossible.
Two reminders;
1. Even a $10 donation helps. I am grateful for whatever you can give during these difficult times.
2. In Alberta; the tax credit for charity is generous, it really only costs you "out of pocket" about half of your donation.
Thank You for considering helping young people discover science.
Description
Scientists in School engages more youth than any Canadian science education charity, museum or science centre. Last year, we reached our 10 millionth scientist! But more work still needs to be done. Your donation will help us to subsidize our workshop costs so that they remain affordable for schools and will provide free workshops to youth in low-income communities. Donate now to help us raise the next generation of frontline health workers, researchers, technologists and scientists – just a few of the STEM workers that are essential in critical times like what we are facing today!
