Community Impact

By providing girls opportunities to explore STEAM (STEM+Art) concepts, we help them increase their confidence and expand their horizons so that they can fully participate in STEAM fields and in our local economy at a higher level. That is why we are empowering girls to be STEAM leaders of tomorrow.

Art in Action

The Art in Action Program provides a high quality, comprehensive K–8 visual arts curriculum to develop students’ critical-thinking skills, creativity, visual literacy, self-esteem, and an appreciation of other cultures.

Community Grants

Responding to critical community needs in our geographic service area. Community grants are available to nonprofit agencies for new programs, capital expenditures and emergency or general operating funds.

Done in a Day Projects

Short, intensive community activities that are typically complete in a single day or weekend. Recent project partners include Canopy, The Princess Project and St. Anthony’s Padua Dining Room.

Project STEAM

In partnership with Project READ at the Redwood City Public Library, providing hands-on STEAM activities for girls and their families.
