WHY OUR WORK MATTERS
Students are at the heart of everything we do.
We believe that every individual has the potential to contribute meaningfully to our evolving world. By reducing financial barriers on individuals and organizations with a focus on the education of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (S.T.E.M.), we are building a platform from which dreams can take flight. Our goal is to empower, inspire, and propel our youth into a future where they not only thrive but also influence positive change and advancement in their communities and beyond.

OUR strategies
We want to help Puerto Rican youth achieve their goals
S.T.E.M stands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, and is typically used to refer to these subjects within the educational space. S.T.E.M subjects are often challenging, and a small percentage of students pursue these disciplines. The Foundation’s vision is to have Puerto Rico’s future leaders rise to meet the demands of an ever-evolving workforce, and the demands on the island to keep pace with growing technological standards. We wish to continue to expand the skills and knowledge of the youth of Puerto Rico by focusing our resources and time to support these disciplines.
