This Month's Highlights

STEM and Santa

C-STEM was proud to participate in this year’s Santa at the Ensemble Theater event, which provides a Christmas celebration for Houston children who might not otherwise have one. C-STEM was honored to present a workshop for more than 250 children during the event. Check out the Foward Times article here.

C-STEM Partners with YWCA Boulder

Earlier this month, C-STEM partnered with the YWCA in Boulder, Colorado and Google to support the National Week of Code with an Hour of Code activity. C-STEM provided six Pi-Top computers to instructors at an elementary, middle and a high school. More than 150 students participated, learning how to program a progress bar using Google Apps Script.

Please help C-STEM meet our fundraising goal before we close out the year...

Our impact is made possible thanks to a family of supporters including donors, teachers, parents, and community leaders. We were honored to meet with many of them at this year’s holiday social, and we thank you immensely for your continued support.

Not able to attend but would still love to support C-STEM before we close out the year? Make a Donation Now!
