CEFinSTEM Information

In a world driven by innovation, the need for STEM passionate students has never been greater. STEM careers are projected to grow by nearly 11% over the next decade, yet too many students still lack access to the education and soft skills required to thrive. Since 1989, CEF has been dedicated to Creating Exciting Futures in STEM for students in K-8 by providing FREE, accessible, and high-impact programs. We have reached more than 5.7 million students—with 100% of scholarship winners going on to pursue STEM after high school. CEF programs equip students with hands-on, inquiry-based learning and real-world skills needed to succeed in the STEM careers of tomorrow. Our impact is made possible by the ongoing support of our generous industry partners and donors, who share our commitment to empowering today's learners to become tomorrow's STEM workforce.
