At after school programs, summer camps and one-day events, Girlstart aims to get girls interested in STEM – science, technology, engineering and math.

Studies have shown careers in STEM-related fields will grow 17 percent in the coming years. So, Girlstart wants to prepare girls for a bright future by introducing them early to math and science activities.

If you have a career in math, science, engineering or technology, you can help by volunteering as a speaker at a Girlstart event. Or, if you’re a parent, you can get your daughter involved.
