Thank You Chevron Volunteers

Throughout the months of September and October, Chevron employees volunteered their time to help prep materials for our after school programs. Volunteers assembled STEM journals, traced gliders, cut foam for LED circuits, and much more. Chevron CEO, Mike Wirth, even joined in on the fun!

We are so thankful to have partners who continuously donate resources and time to support Girlstart programs. Thank you!

Thank You Houston Girls in STEM Conference Volunteers

Girlstart hosted it’s second annual Girls in STEM Conference in Houston, TX on Saturday, October 5th at Alief Taylor High school. Over 250 4th-8th grade girls from all over the Houston area joined us for a truly impactful day.

Throughout the day, girls attended hands-on workshops led by women from companies such as: ExxonMobil, Acxiom, Jacobs Technologies, Shell, Pape-Dawson,Johnson Space Center, and so many others. A big thank you to the 45 presenters/co-presenters for sharing their Saturday with us and inspiring girls.

There were also close to 80 volunteers who helped behind the scenes with setting up, checking in girls, monitoring halls, assisting workshops, helping presenters unload and load up their cars, and more. The day wouldn’t have been possible without the help of our amazing volunteers and the support from the Houston community.
