Inspire the Limitless Potential in Girls
Join us on our mission to level the playing field for girls everywhere.
Women represent 50% of the US population. Yet, women make up less than 1/4 of the nation’s STEM workforce.
Why is this?
As early as age 6, girls start believing they aren’t smart or capable enough.
They have few positive women role models in STEM. So they can’t be what they can’t see!
Confidence and motivation—for STEM or anything—continues to wane during middle school.
Nurturing young women towards a career in STEM requires more than STEM education alone.
