Description

Donate, and help me Step 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
