Do you remember proclaiming what you wanted to be once you grew up as a child? How'd that work out?

Did you change majors midway through college? Better yet, have you changed career paths altogether after finding your passion?

Technology Access Foundation (TAF) is committed to providing students of all ages access to real-life situations and ensuring education equality for all. One of the ways we do this is through allowing our students to learn through others.

As a STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) leader, our students are taught to ask questions, discover the world through project-based learning and focus their learning on real-life application. We encourage our students to think big and to think forward.

Here's what we need:

Professional volunteers who have experiece in journalism or reporting. Are students are working on questioning strategies and we are loking for a quest soeaker who can share thier expereince and ask the students some questions.

We hope to work with you soon!
