Recurring Contributions for SciTech2U
$1,490 Raised
Greetings,
I am Zainab Abbas, CEO and founder of Scitech2U. I am pleased to share that we are joining the Giving 8/28 campaign to support the lives of Black and Bwn youth who struggle against incredible odds to achieve their dreams.
All too often, too many youth in our communities have encountered systemic racism that stifles their upward mobility, and in some cases, cost them their lives. One of the most pivotal solutions to addressing these challenges is to offer Black and Brown youth access to high-quality educational programs the likes of their White counterparts. I am committed to playing my part in leveling the playing field by producing high-quality STEAM programs.
I will never forget the day when I witnessed the heart wrenching moment my best student, who was African American, was taken away in handcuffs right out of my classroom where I taught biotechnology at a local college. I recall feeling helpless and an overwhelming sense of concern for this promising young Black man. Shortly after that experience, I founded SciTech2U to inspire young Black and Brown youth who are at risk of academic impoverishment to exciting ways of learning STEAM subjects.
Now more than ever, when teaching and learning are being challenged by the pandemic, Black and Brown youth and their families need us. Their parents will be challenged during the upcoming academic school year in making the transition from in-school learning to a virtual environment. That is why SciTech2U needs your support.
We want to ensure that all parents can afford to provide enriching, hands-on STEAM learning experiences for their children. Your help, no matter how big or small, will go far to ensure we reach Black and Brown youth who need us the most.
Please donate generously and share this giving opportunity with colleagues, friends, and family.

Sincerly,
