We are so happy you are interested in donating to Newton’s Road.  Your contributions help our youth and the region thrive by increasing pathways to success through STEM learning and career exploration. Support from generous donors like you have helped us: 

  • bring STEM Kits into all 21 regional libraries, where families can check them out just like books
  • develop the Newton’s Road Career Investigator, to help students and  adults explore well-paying, high-demand jobs in local STEM-related industries
  • layer STEM Kits and our Career Investigator into 20+ community service organizations, making STEM career pathways available to more youth 

We continue to collaborate across our region to grow STEM awareness and remove barriers to access every day.  STEM-related careers are the fastest-growing segment of our economy and STEM-based jobs pay more than non-STEM positions.  Support our work with your tax-deductible gift (our EIN is 84-3024496).
