In today's rapidly evolving world, it is crucial to ensure that women are equally represented in technical industries. Unfortunately, women and non-binary individuals still face significant barriers when it comes to accessing opportunities and launching successful careers in fields such as Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM). That's why we are thrilled to announce our latest partnership with Dream Big Australia, a nonprofit organisation who have developed a renowned career development program, STEAM Ahead.
Dream Big Australia's STEAM Ahead program has already made a significant impact on the lives of over 300 talented women and non-binary students across the country. By providing them with the confidence, capabilities, and networks necessary to succeed in technical fields, this program has opened doors and created endless possibilities for these individuals. However, sustaining this invaluable support requires skilled staffing and essential platforms like Zoom and Sharepoint, which enable Dream Big Australia to connect aspiring women with opportunities.
Through their free program, they aim to remove financial barriers that often hinder marginalised, regional, or low socioeconomic background women from accessing career and employment opportunities. By sponsoring a STEAM student, you can contribute to their journey towards a successful and fulfilling career, irrespective of their financial circumstances.
The average cost to run the STEAM Ahead program and provide the services throughout the year amounts to between $460 and $730 per student. With your support, we can continue to impact the lives of even more incredible, diverse, and talented women across Australia.
By sponsoring a STEAM student, you are not only investing in their future but also in the future of our society as a whole. By promoting gender equality and inclusivity in technical fields, we can foster innovation, creativity, and progress.
Together, let's empower the next generation of women in STEAM and create a world where everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed.
Will you help us reach Dream Big Australia’s goal of $730 to sponsor a STEAM student and provide them with access to this career-launching program? Your contribution, no matter the amount, will make a significant difference in the lives of these aspiring individuals.
Thank you for supporting women to dream and succeed in their STEAM careers!
