About STEMS4Girls
Our Founder
Our founder, Kaye Crawford, is a first generation college graduate on a mission to increase the representation of minority females in science, technology, engineering, and math studies and careers. Through her educational and work experiences, she understands the necessity of having committed mentors who can nurture and help children and youth from underserved communities reach their full potential.
Our Goal
Through afterschool STEM literacy programs and a volunteer program we will provide STEM-related support and services to young ladies from underserved communities at no cost.
Our Vision
STEMS4Girls hopes to narrow the educational and resource disparity that exists among underserved communities in Leon County. With the help of the local community and donors, we aspire to build a state-of-the-art STEM facility where minority girls with less than a 2.5 GPA can have a safe space to actively engage with educators, tutors, and mentors. Through a structured policy driven program and support system, we hope to expose them to career opportunities in the STEM industry and inspire the next generation of young girls to sustain STEM practices throughout their education and career.
