Girlstart kicked off the month of DeSTEMber with our DeSTEMber Extravaganza on Saturday, December 7th in Austin, TX, and Sunnyvale, CA.
Volunteers led hands-on activities including gliders, circuit reindeer, paper rockets, InstaSnow, dancing gingerbread, and more. We are so thankful to have such amazing volunteers who took time to engage and inspire kids and their families in STEM.

Volunteers helped us prep materials for our Game Changers Luncheon as well as our Spooktacular event. They rolled shirts, cut hundreds of pieces of foam, and labeled boxes of colored pencils.
A huge thank you to Square Root for donating their time and helping us make STEM fun and meaningful for girls across the country!
2019 was a great year and we had hundreds of volunteers help in various capacities throughout the country. Volunteers prepped materials for after school, summer camps, and various public STEM events. They cut cardboard, plastic wrap, aluminum foil, helped with mailings, painted, led hands-on activities, fixed computers, guest spoke, presented at Girls in STEM, assembled journals, and so much more.
We are thankful for everyone who helped this past year to make programs such a success and I look forward to another amazing year in 2020!
