Help us bring STEM to the Saginaw community

STEM skills are in high demand in today’s rapidly changing world. These skills are, and will continue to be, the tools necessary to address the complex challenges of today and tomorrow. Unfortunately, many students from minority and low-income communities have been underserved in STEM education and underrepresented in STEM careers.
