STEM is for Everyone’s Post

Friends and Colleagues, The holidays are a time for giving. I ask that you consider donating to this wonderful organization that makes quality STEM educational opportunities available to minority and at-risk youth in the Mt. Vernon New York area, a predominantly minority community. We have an education deficit in our country, particularly in key subjects such as science, maths, engineering and technology, subjects which are critical to developing the skill sets necessary to perform many of the jobs available in the present and future economy. Due to underfunded and overstretched school systems and other factors, children in historically socioeconomically depressed areas such as Mt. Vernon often lack access to meaningful STEM educational opportunities to gain the skills they will need to be productive employees and members of society when they reach adulthood, which often results in them going down the wrong path and deprives our economy and society of capable workers. When they are unable to access quality STEM education through their school, children who are genuinely interested in learning about STEM subjects look elsewhere but often lack the financial resources to participate in private programs. Northeast STEM Starter Academy (NSSA) rectifies this by making STEM programming available to these kids and fostering their interest in these subjects. Children that come through the program often go on to obtain scholarships and attend university and participate in internship programs as they pursue their passions and careers. For example, a recent NSSA student completed her degree at a prestigious university and secured employment with a laboratory in which she interned while in school. NSSA is there for the kids who want to learn, and the kids and our society as a whole benefit from it. These children are America’s future, and properly educated, they will provide the human capital needed to power America’s economy tomorrow. Thank you in advance for your willingness to donate any amount - your donation, no matter how small, will truly make a meaningful difference in the lives of these children, and is a small step toward addressing the educational deficit that exists in our country today.

At the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences & Engineering we're working hard to ensure Australia has the skilled, diverse workforce we need to transition our energy systems, reduce waste, and grow our technological and manufacturing capability. We're an independent charity that provides unbiased, evidence-based, expert advice to decision-makers - and our national #awardwinning school education, scholarships, and mentoring programs are building confidence, skills and career pathways for a diverse range of Australians in #sustainableengineering and #technology. Our proven education program is in one-third of Australian secondary schools - we believe Australia's future will be brighter if we can also reach the other two-thirds. If you agree with us that we need to do everything we can to tackle #climatechange, please consider a tax-deductible donation before #EOFY. It's not too late to help us help Australia to build a better future.

Questions for you: Should humanity's first permanent steps into space look just like those on Earth today, or should we take the opportunity to consider how they could be better and strive towards that instead? Is space for an elite few, or is it for all of us? Who will ask the right questions and lead the way to an interplanetary future that's for all of humanity? The answer to at least the last question is the students who will be the recipients of this fund. There is real magic in giving students who never believed that space was something for *them* the opportunity to realize that space is *ours*, and they can be a part of it - a big part. One of the things I'm absolutely passionate about is helping people make this transformative leap in understanding, and when it's also helping students realize that they're the ones that will shape the future of space, I'm all in. Please consider making a donation - of any size - and know that you'll not only be giving students opportunities they never dreamed were possible, but also helping make sure that the future of space is inclusive for *all of us*.
