About Aspire's STEM Makerspace
Aspire's is building a 1,400 square foot “Makerspace,” which will allow us to grow to support more students, expand our hands-on project-based learning components, welcome guest presenters, and incorporate science labs, coding classes, and other interactive activities.
We are currently fundraising for the supplies to furnish the space, such as workstations, tables, seating, and more materials to make the space a flexible learning environment for students. What can your donation do?
$50: 2 stackable stools that will provide flexible seating for students to participate in science experiments and video projects
$100: 1 giant flexible space pillow for students to comfortably participate in robotics demonstrations and small group discussions
$500: 1 laptop charging cart that can charge and store up to 30 laptops and tablets
$1,000: 1 art cart that will provide versatile storage and enable easy transportation of supplies
$5,000: 1 mobile workstation & a projector that will provide storage, flexibility, and a space for students to work in groups, as well as more options for in-person and virtual workshops
$10,000: 25 laptops that will provide students with the opportunity to engage in STEM lessons like coding and research projects as a class
We also have a range of corporate sponsorship opportunities available. To learn more, please email Paula Fynboh at paula@aspireafterschool.org.
