Scientific Adventures for Girls
Scientific Adventures for Girls is looking for 6 female STEM role models to visit girls in K-6th grade this fall (anytime between Nov 1 and December 10). We are looking for women who use math in their jobs. This session we are engaging them in hands-on math with a goal to make math their favorite subject! This is a rewarding 2-4 hour commitment that can ignite a lifelong passion for math and science for a young girl!
The elementary schools are located in Oakland, Richmond, Berkeley, and Emeryville. Reserve your spot now by signing up here (https://scientificadventuresforgirls.volunteerlocal.com/volunteer/), and help shape tomorrow's STEM leaders.
