Past Programs
Since 2019, Rise in STEM has offered a variety of holistic STEM programming for youth in the Greater Toronto Area.
Youth Projects 2021
As part of our 2020-21 Mentorship Program, youth participants explored and learned about various underrepresented STEM inventors and icons. Their projects highlight the many people who have contributed to our society and that often go unnoticed.
Rise Up Program
This year, for our annual Rise Up program we partnered with The Wealthsimple Foundation and McMaster Venture Academy to teach youth critical skills in financial literacy and introduced them to the field of engineering.
Youth Action Committee
In 2021 we introduced the Youth Action Committee, consisting of 9 youth leaders across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Since then, they have developed campaigns and curated several events to enhance wellness and support youth leadership development. Use the buttons below to review their work.
Thanks to contributions from our supporters, we were able to provide a $500 scholarship to a student pursuing STEM.
