The Jane Golub STEM Fund increases access to miSci’s educational programs for underserved youth through free or discounted admissions for school programming (virtual, outreach, in-museum programs).

Why miSci?

Museums have a powerful influence on early childhood education. Children who participate in informal STEM learning experiences, like those delivered by miSci, demonstrate higher achievement in reading, math, and science and are more likely to pursue STEM careers. Museums deliver fun, hands-on, place-based learning experiences designed to immerse children in the creative process of science and the exhilaration of discovery. These experiences help children visualize themselves in STEM careers. Your support of the Jane Golub STEM Fund will allow miSci to provide these valuable STEM experiences to the children in our community and beyond.

Value for Your Organization

In addition to providing funding for high-impact STEM education programs and initiatives that promote equity in science education and inspire the youth, your generosity will be recognized publicly through a myriad of channels.
