For giving Girlstart room to grow.
As more girls become involved in STEM activities through Girlstart, we found ourselves outgrowing our office space. Interns and volunteers needing a place to work to support our mission found themselves stationed in hallways or odd spaces throughout our building. Girls coming for activities needed an updated and more energizing place for STEM. Thankfully, our amazing ongoing community partner, DPR, came to the rescue!
DPR employees are superstars with their ongoing volunteer commitments to speak at our Girls in STEM Conference , our Summer Camp sessions, and support our Game Changers luncheon. So, when they saw a space that needed some serious help…DPR stepped up to provide an in-kind remodel of our entire office and student space…all within six weeks!
All labor was volunteer based and DPR was able to partner with some awesome companies to help support the effort. None of this lovely gift would have been possible without the generosity of Angie Weyant of DPR, who serves on the Girlstart Central Texas Council and the driving force behind this in-kind renovation.
Here are the companies that helped make this in-kind remodel happen:
McCoy Rockford Commercial Interiors
We are also grateful for the tireless work of Darcie Fowler (DPR), David Walker (DPR), Ricky Fernandez (DPR), Cari Rodriguez (DPR), Karl Drake (DPR), Vikki Benefiel (Interior Architects), Holly Holstrom (INTERIOR ARCHITECTS), and Greg Wagner (PPG Paints).
Thank you!
