| About us | With women making up less than 26 percent of the STEM workforce — and Black and Hispanic women at less than 4 percent — SCFG addresses a critical need, offering a continuum of engaging activities in STEM for K-8 girls, junior mentoring and leadership experiences for high school girls, and adult mentoring and role modeling by committed women with STEM careers. In 2016, 80% of our girls were from underrepresented communities and 100% went on to college, including to prestigious institutions such as Harvard, Brandeis, Boston and Northeastern Universities. |
