It’s time to show that Central Texas is full of generosity! On March 6-7, from 6pm-6pm, help us celebrate Amplify Austin Day by making a donation to the Science Mill.

WHY DONATE TO THE SCIENCE MILL?

In Texas and our country, the complex challenges of tomorrow will require STEM professionals, entrepreneurs and problem solvers. Yet research shows low-income students, students of color, rural students and girls are underrepresented in STEM programs and in STEM careers as adults. This includes more than 60% of all Texas students who live in economically disadvantaged communities, with little or no access to STEM programs. The Science Mill brings hands-on, science- and technology-focused programs to Texas communities with the greatest need, providing transformative experiences for students and local teachers.

We need the next generation of scientists, engineers, doctors and technicians. While not every kid will choose a career in STEM, we want every kid to have the access and encouragement to know that they could. Building on our success as a destination attraction and STEM learning leader in central and south Texas, our goal is to bring our proven network of year-round STEM programs to more kids in more places across the state.

The Science Mill has always been focused on one thing: inspiring the next generation of scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs and problem solvers. Our mission—and your support—is more important than ever.
