Thank You Girls in STEM Volunteers in Houston

Item

Girlstart hosted it’s first Girls in STEM Conference in Houston, TX on Saturday, September 22nd at Alief Taylor High school. The rain didn’t stop over 200 4th-5th grade girls from attending this one day conference.

Throughout the day, girls attended hands-on workshops led by women from companies such as: ExxonMobil, Acxiom, Jacobs Technologies, Weatherford, Shell, Pape-Dawson, and so many others. A big thank you to the 50+ presenters/co-presenters for sharing their Saturday with us and inspiring girls.

There were also close to 60 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.
