Our nation and our world need innovators, problem-solvers, challenge seekers, and change makers.

Filling the Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math (STEM) pipeline with internally motivated students who have mastered critical thinking skills is vital for the domestic and global economy.

Just imagine if your contribution could be instrumental in spurring a student’s passion for researching a disease and that knowledge contribution resulted in a cure? Think about if your dollars created the pivotal experience that redirects a budding scientist’s life? What if your donation could change the course of history?

As a social entrepreneurship program, Science Coach engages 6-12th grade students and teachers in developing the critical thinking skills needed for project-based STEM research. The Science Coach program coaches students to choose questions of personal interest, create procedures to test hypotheses, arrive at answers with validity, and build confidence in solving real world problems. It encourages students to never stop questioning and inspires world change through science projects.

Donating to Science Coach may directly impact the world in which we all live. How many other philanthropic causes can provide you with the opportunity to effect true change? Donors can influence the questions students investigate and celebrate in discovery!

Testimonials

“I donated to encourage students to do science fair projects. Whether they win competitions or not, they learn critical thinking skills, become a more scientifically-literate citizen and often discover a passion which drives a career decision.”
