AAUW + StemEd for girls

STEMEd for Girls is a FREE exciting online program created for high school girls —with a particular focus on girls of color—and the people who support them. Whether you are just starting to explore an interest in science, technology, engineering, or math, or you have already decided to major in STEM in college, this program will help you prepare for the journey from 9th grade to 12th grade.

Boys and Girls Clubs of Kansas City

Many of the children we serve don’t have the opportunity to play team sports, experience the arts or even use a computer. With your support, our Whole Child Program Model helps children round out their educational, emotional, physical and moral development. Life-changing experiences are possible through Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Kansas City!

Girls: The powerful world of technology has a place for you. It’s never too early to start exploring where computer science may take you. Research by the National Center for Women & Information Technology shows that having positive female role models is a primary motivator for girls exploring careers in the field. If you are a woman working in computer science or related fields, consider sharing your experiences with a local student.
