| The first program provides STEM programs in support of the USAF and USSF. We continue visit with over 10,000 students on campus in schools. The majority of the schools visited have been Pre K - 5th grade. However, we have also worked with middle school and high school students through the Space STEM Program. The focus of the program has primarily been Title 1 schools in the Los Angeles area. We have also proven out the concept in rural Tennessee (Mount Pleasant) and in collaboration with Vandenberg Space Force Base (Orcutt School District, Los Alamos). We continue to expand schools served in Los Angeles. | $0 | $68,957 |
| The third program rewards student volunteers who have donated time and talents supporting the STEM Coalition and furthering the advancement of STEM education. The STEM Coalition has awarded 1 grant this year. | $0 | $2,500 |
| The second program develops curriculum and lesson plans for STEM educators beginning with pre-K through high school. The STEM Coalition has volunteers from academia and industry collaborating to develop age appropriate, project-based STEM programs for American youth. | $0 | $0 |
