ABOUT STEM QUEENS
STEM Queens is a registered nonprofit dedicated to introducing young women of color to careers in STEM. Our primary strategy for achieving this goal is to expose our target audience to a complete representation of the field of STEM, the existing career paths, and professionals representative of their racial and ethnic backgrounds. We explore the depth and width of STEM careers in a relatable and educational way. We seek to serve middle school girls from underserved communities underrepresented in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields.
We welcome and appreciate support of any kind. Here are ways you can help:
