Empower Annalise's Future in STEM

Welcome to Annalise's GoFundMe page. She is an exceptional young lady who needs your help! Annalise is 9 years old and has a wonderful opportunity for this summer. She has been nominated for the National Youth Leadership Forum: Pathway to STEM.

This is a week-long program that enables students to receive hands-on experience in different fields related to S.T.E.M (science, technology, engineering, and math). The program she is attending will explore medicine: I have an inside scoop that she will be dissecting a calf's heart to learn how it functions. Engineering will be explored through programming and building robots. She will also get the chance to learn about science through CSI. The kids will learn the tools to find an ancient map. Through these daily activities, the teachers and staff will instill the skills of leadership, social development, and critical thinking. This experience will follow her into the future along with the independence and confidence of doing something on her own.

This opportunity is similar to sports; you can't expect a child to know automatically how to play once they start. You train them from a young age and develop their talent. Education is Annalise's game! She enjoys learning and is already reading at an eighth-grade level! Help her enhance her educational goals! This could lead to opportunities in her future!
