Science Club for Girls

Science Club for Girls is a nonprofit organization that seeks to increase the self-confidence and literacy in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) of K-12th grade girls, especially those belonging to groups that are underrepresented in the sciences, through free programs that provide hands-on learning, mentorship, and leadership opportunities.

Girls work with mentor-scientists who model and foster leadership, affirm college as an expectation, and promote careers in science and technology as goals and options.
