Sarah’s story begins like so many girls across this country. Growing up in a low-income community, her boundless curiosity for science met with limited resources and role models.  Everything changed when she became a Techbridge Girl. This year, we impacted 25,000 girls across the country like Sarah by training and equipping their educators with the tools to create inclusive spaces where these youth can become critical STEM thinkers, develop and grow a practice mindset with the engineering design process, and enjoy STEM. Join us in our mission to build equitable STEM education at bit.ly/TBGGiving.
