National Day of Giving

It takes a lot of marbles, tape, baking soda, LED lights, mini-bug robots, plant seeds, and other supplies to keep a great science education program running! Help CRS to reach our Spring fundraising goal of $10,000!

Thanks to a generous challenge grant from the Dean Witter Foundation, your donation will be matched one-for-one. Double your impact!
Join us on the National Day of Giving by making your gift through East Bay Gives on May 6! For every gift received, CRS will be entered in a special raffle for a chance at additional funds, meeting space, and other prizes!

Please help CRS keep exciting science and engineering learning happening in local elementary schools!

Workshops and individual support for teachers

In the words of one of our teachers:

“Teaching science is about helping students understand how the world around them works.  From what happens when you make pancakes to why you need sunlight to grow a garden, science helps students make sense of their lived experience and exposes them to life beyond their own community.

CRS is such a valuable resource – especially their BASIS program which brings real-life scientists into public school classrooms like mine to “do science” with students.  The hands-on lessons that they tailor to the needs of each classroom allowed my students to make sense of some difficult science concepts we’ve been studying this year.”

The mission of CRS is to empower teachers and STEM professionals serving schools in historically marginalized communities to activate TK-8 students’ curiosity about the world, foster critical thinking, and inspire children to imagine future career pathways. We envision a community of educators, scientists, families and partners working together to build school cultures that equip all children to explore the world around them and build the skills needed to become innovators, problem solvers, environmental stewards, life-long learners and leaders. CRS leads a dynamic network, fostering relationships and collaborations that leverage expertise and resources to transform science teaching and learning toward greater equity, opportunity, and success for all students.

 

Our goal is simple: help teachers give students more opportunities to “do science” – to ask questions, test ideas, get their hands on real science activities. We need to inspire the next generation of thinkers, makers, problem solvers, and leaders!
