Are you an evangelist for getting more girls and young women interested in STEM? Have a knack for teaching or encouraging students to try new things?Then this is the perfect activity for you!

Come join us in events and programs that are geared to inspiring young women and girls to BE all they can be in the wonderful world of STEM and STEAM.

STEM Kids NYC facilitates weekend, summer camp, and afterschool programs throughout the school year. Your roles will be, but this is not an exclusive list:

1. Helping young girls build an app that addresses an issue affecting young women and girls

2. Support them in gaining more confidence to try new things, and even fail at them, as failing is simply a first attempt at learning.

3. Engineering an invention that will revolutionize the ___ industry (the young engineers will fill in the blanks)

STEM experience preferred. We are looking to involve as many volunteers who can serve as those 'holding the space' and supporting the STEM-Fabulous participants in using their creativity and ingenuity to make things that inspire their mind, body, and spirit.

About STEM Kids NYC

Location:

361 W. 125th Street, New York, NY 10027, US

Mission Statement

Our mission is to bridge the gap between current school curriculum and the immediate need for schools to prepare students for STEM opportunities.

Description

STEM Kids NYC is a 501(c)(3) education company that provides a year-round, intensive suite of STEM education programs for K-12 scholars. Our core programs foster STEM skills development, an understanding of the importance of STEM as a way to solve the world’s major problems, as well as an interest in STEM electives, majors, and careers. We’re comprised of educators, engineers, and computer and systems programmers,

What sets us apart from companies that offer similar services is that we seek to provide a weekly STEM program that is integrated into a school's curriculum, or in an afterschool setting. Though we offer summer camps, our focus is primarily on exposing students to STEM skill building programs throughout the school year.
