Initiatives
STEM Up offers a variety of opportunities that support anyone's ability to flourish, prosper, and further cultivate their knowledge in STEM. We measure our impact not just in numbers, but in the confidence and curiosity we help build in the children we work with and supporting them through every stage of their education. All of our events are geared towards one mission: ensuring everyone regardless of their background has the same opportunity to succeed in STEM and education as a whole.
Together we rise, together we STEM Up!
Tutoring Program
STEM Up's tutoring program provides free tutoring for girls from pre-K through high school, removing financial barriers to quality academic support primarily in science, english, and math however open to all subjects. The program is entirely virtual and open to students from kindergarten through 12th grade, so all a student needs to participate is access to a computer. The program was built around a simple principle: a girl's access to strong academic support shouldn't depend on her family's income.
Through this program, girls are paired with tutors who help them build confidence in subjects that can otherwise feel intimidating or out of reach, especially in communities where tutoring is expensive or hard to find. Tutors go through an orientation before getting started and are in charge of preparing their own study materials catering to the needs of their tutee thus, ensuring every student receives consistent, quality support. Our goal isn't just to help with homework, it's to give every girl the right to take ownership of her own education.
STEM Up hosts a variety of events all dedicated towards empowering the next generation of youth including educational toolkit drives, reading sessions, science experiment workshops and donation drives.

UNIVERSITY CHAPTERS
The University chapters serve as an extension of the STEM Up organization where passionate young students are leading STEM Up orientated initiatives tailored towards their institution and local community. The purpose of the chapters is to provide support for females interested in STEM careers as well as supporting the overall organizations' goals. We currently only have one chapter established at the University of Maryland, College Park.
