You can be part of that village.

NVA STEM believes young people need more than exposure to STEM — they need access.

Access to the places where innovation happens.
Access to professionals who can show them what is possible.
Access to internships and real-world experiences.
Access to mentors, scholarships, college pathways and opportunities that can change the trajectory of their lives.

That's where you come in.

Our village is made stronger by businesses, universities, STEM professionals, community organizations, families and individuals who are willing to open a door, share an opportunity or invest in a student.

​

​

THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO MAKE AN IMPACT.

​

OPEN YOUR DOORS — HOST A CORPORATE STEM TOUR

Invite NVA STEM students behind the scenes of your company, university, laboratory, manufacturing facility, technology center, hospital, airport or engineering operation.

​Let students see where STEM happens — and meet the people making it happen.

 

CREATE A CAREER OPPORTUNITY — INTERNSHIPS & JOB SHADOWING

Give a student the opportunity to spend a day, a week or a summer learning alongside a professional.

Offer an internship, job-shadowing experience, career conversation, workplace visit or mentorship opportunity.

Sometimes one experience is all it takes for a young person to say, “I can see myself doing this.”

​

SPONSOR A STEM WORKSHOP — $500

Help turn curiosity into discovery.

A $500 workshop sponsorship helps NVA STEM provide hands-on learning experiences that expose students to engineering, technology, science, aviation and emerging STEM careers.

Your company, organization, family or professional group can sponsor a workshop and help put STEM directly into students' hands.

​

INVEST IN A GRADUATING SENIOR — SUPPORT OUR $1,000 SCHOLARSHIP FUND

Help an NVA STEM senior take the next step toward college and career success.

Every contribution moves a student closer to that goal:

​

$25 — Friend of a Graduate
$50 — Senior Supporter
$100 — Future Builder
$250 — STEM Champion
$500 — Leadership Sponsor
$1,000 — Fully Fund a Graduating Senior Scholarship

Whether you give $25 or fund the entire scholarship, you become part of that student's story.

🌟 SPONSOR A CHILD — $175

For $175, you can sponsor a student's annual NVA STEM membership and help give that child access to a year of STEM programming, mentorship, career exposure and opportunities to discover what's possible.
