At our Camps, we provide supportive cohorts & nutritious meals to fuel learning! It costs $15/day per girl to provide this throughout the three-week Camp. This #GivingSeason, consider this food for thought when making your end-of-year contributions. 🤎

Believing math is for YOU is the most important problem to solve! That’s what JaNai learned through our summer program. “It’s a really great community to have other girls who look like me encourage each other to do better. And to do stuff we may tell ourselves we can't do."

Come as you are. Truly. Every “expert” had their 1st, 2nd & eventually 500th day doing what they love. Most girls who attend our programs have little experience in STEM. But after attending—they begin to carve out their place in the STEM world. What will you do to get your start?

Jonay participated in STEM From Dance in 2018 with no interest in STEM because she hadn't been introduced in an empowering way. Today, Jonay is a Sustainability Coordinator at Richemont. Planting seeds of confidence so our students know their options is our everyday work at SFD.

While women of color are severely underrepresented in STEM fields. 91% of girls who complete our programs become excited about a career in STEM. Supporting STEM From Dance creates a future that includes the insight, intellect, and innovation that Black and Brown women offer.
