The world around us is constantly being changed and challenged by advancements in science. Think of how far we’ve come in just the past few years in regard to our access to technology, health care and knowledge. Scientific advancements make the world a more exciting place—they enable us to live a vibrant today, while giving us hope for an even brighter tomorrow.
But behind every scientific breakthrough is a curious mind. Without this curiosity—and without a pipeline of future, inspired scientists—we cannot thrive. To keep the spark alive, it is critical for parents, teachers and today’s leaders in STEM to help ensure all children have access to quality education and the right tools to ignite their passion. The best and brightest minds aren’t just reading about science—they’re doing science.
