#IAM PROJECT Scholarship
Empowering Women of Color to Succeed in STEM
The scholarship is for a one-time cash award of at least $1000 (minimally).
The #IAm Project is a response to the stark underrepresentation of women of color in STEM. While early exposure to STEM is important,
establishing a healthy, sustainable environment is critical for the female scientists, techies, engineers, & mathematicians already here.
With this in mind, we hope to pave the way for those following in our footsteps with the creation of this scholarship and mentoring network.
