C-STEM and I share many things in common, two of them being our dedication to the Houston community and our passion for STEM. Houston is where I was raised and where I developed a commitment to helping young boys and girls see success in the C-STEM space. My occupation as a STEM entrepreneur with a technology consultant firm has allowed me to understand and devote myself to creating and fostering opportunities for young scholars who are in the same position that I once was. During my three-year period as a board member, it has been rewarding to see the progress that C-STEM has made in curating resources and opportunities to offer students a chance to explore STEM disciplines and industries, such as with the ‘Anywhere C-STEM Toolkits’ campaign.

C-STEM has always provided innovative solutions for children of all ages to learn and experience learning with their hands, to solve problems, think critically, and connect with real-world issues. So when the COVID-19 pandemic entered all of our lives, I could rest assured that C-STEM would provide a solution that could continue to bridge education gaps during these difficult times of social distancing.  When C-STEM launched a Campaign, ‘Anywhere C-STEM Toolkits’, to provide 30,000 Toolkits to 30,000 students, without hesitation I signed on.

Learning doesn’t have to stop due to students’ inability to reach a classroom. It should be occurring at home just as it does at school.  C-STEM has found a way through this Campaign to empower parents who are often counted out and aid them in being a stronger academic partner with schools and a more vested participant in their child’s learning.

Please join me in supporting the ‘C-STEM 30,000 Toolkits for 30,000 Students Campaign’ and donate TODAY!  A minimum donation of $25 can cover the cost of one toolkit!
