Thanks to support from the Frances Dewin Foundation and individual donors like you, we've embarked on a new aspect of our mission: we are working to increase access to science within our community. Presenting hands-on science workshops involves ongoing costs that oftentimes limits access to learning. Within a two-block radius of the Kiddie Science Lab, there are a handful of small preschools and childcare centers that could benefit from fun and engaging science exploration, but it proves cost prohibitive to do so.
We put the call out for support and you've helped make incredible things happen. For the last couple of months, we have been working with local childcare groups to increase access and engagement in science. This includes visits to the Lab and take-home materials that engage adults in exploring science with their children. We raised enough funds to make this possible at no cost to families or the program providers. It's been an amazing time exploring worms and compost, caring for the garden, learning about chemistry, observing our turtles, and learning about ecology.
As we come to the end of our funding, we want to say thank you for making this possible! The feedback from families in the program has been great and many have used the resources shared with them. You have helped make an incredible impact. Thank you!
