I’m Stepping it Up for Science because…

We need to work together to promote equity in STEM, so that all children can develop the science and math literacy skills they need to succeed in tomorrow’s workforce. Children not only need to get excited about STEM, as part of the world around them, they need to see themselves as scientists and engineers through role models like Scientists in School’s community of diverse scientist-presenters. By Stepping it up for Science, I’m helping make sure every voice is represented in our workforce, communities, research and scientific discoveries, and to empower today’s youth to participate fully in strong and healthy communities. Step it Up for Science with me! Donate today.

Description

Donate, and help meStep it Up for Science!

I’m taking part in the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon and helping Scientists in School raise $25,000 for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) enrichment workshops across Canada.

Your donation will help make sure every child in Canada -- especially those in lower-income, rural, and remote communities -- has access to hands-on STEM workshops. Workshops that give them the opportunity to BE a scientist in school today, and BECOME the researchers, engineers and technologists we need for tomorrow. 

What can your donation do for young scientists?

  • Make sure every child gets to participate in hands-on scientific exploration by purchasing materials, such as sterilized owl pellets, magnifiers, pipettes, seeds, and copper tape 
  • Provide consistent, high-quality experiences through extensive presenter training and mentorship and regular quality assurance visits
  • Ensure children everywhere in Canada have access to hands-on STEM learning by providing free workshps to schools and community groups in under-served areas
  • Meet the changing needs of children and educators through the development of new, curriculum-aligned workshop topics
