GiSTEM Week 2025
Organizational Description:
GiSTEM Inc. is a solution to create a future workforce by equipping young talent with the skills for success in STEM-based careers.
Event Description:
We are looking for females to volunteer during GiSTEM Week. GiSTEM Week is a week-long STEM intensive program for rising 8th – 12th grade girls, exposing them to careers, introducing them to women professionals in the industry, and helping them to develop foundational STEM and business skills. This experience is designed to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, preparing students for a future where STEM skills are increasingly vital. The skills obtained throughout the program prepare them to present an innovative solution to their capstone project at the end of the week. GiSTEM Week is committed to promoting diversity and inclusivity, ensuring that girls, regardless of background, have the opportunity to explore and excel.
