The Parris Foundation: S.T.E.M.ulating Minds Information

The Parris Foundation is dedicated to promoting educational opportunities and fostering awareness in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) through scholarships and community outreach programs. The Parris Foundation's Programs provide extended learning opportunities to supplement and enhance in-school learning. We believe that attracting young people to STEM is the key to closing the achievement gap, and eradicating the disparity in academic performance between disadvantaged and privileged students. In an effort to break the cycle of poverty in underprivileged communities, The Parris Foundation equips disenfranchised students with the tools needed to pursue STEM disciplines, academically and professionally.
