BCA Boston STEM - student fund.

Donation protected
We are students from Beamont Collegiate Academy in Warrington. Our school is a centre of Excellence for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths.
We are the only high school in the UK to hold the prestigious STEM assured quality mark.
However, our school is in one of the most deprived areas in the country. 

In September we will travel to Boston, USA for an inspirational, aspiration-raising working trip to look at the best STEM facilities in the World.

The money you donate will support those children who could not afford to take this opportunity without financial help.
 
We have been handpicked for our outstanding ability in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics and we will be immersed in the world of STEM for 8 days.  

We will be working with:
Harvard University, the worlds foremost STEM university,
MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) ,
Engineers from the global company iRobot and Lowell, who developed the Mars rover.
Marine Biologists to study Ecology in the north Atlantic Ocean.
 
We have been endlessly trying to raise the £10,000 needed for this trip. The school is generously supporting us and so far we've held bake sales, assisted shoppers with their packing at weekends, ran our own café during Coderdojo events at the academy and organised draws to win a number of hampers.

The opportunity for us as students to make this trip is truly life changing but now we need help to raise the remaining money needed. 

Any donations from 50p to £500 will help ensure the brightest of futures for our students and provide Warrington with a wealth of scientists, engineers and mathematicians in the future.

We thank you in advance for your generosity and look forward to sharing the experiences of our trip with you.
