TechREACH needs your help! We have a variety of involvement opportunities,
which include the following:
Volunteer Opportunities
Mentor:
All of the TechREACH students are matched with a professional who works in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM). Mentoring is conducted primarily via e-mail and an online career discussion board, but there are also opportunities for mentors to participate in mentoring events and club activities. Contact the Mentor Program Coordinator or
visit http://www.psctlt.org/techreach/mentors/overview.html
for more information.
Guest Speaker: Sign up to be a guest speaker at a TechREACH Club, and share your experience working in the field of science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) with middle school students. Contact the Mentor Program Coordinator for more information.
Field Trips: Host a field trip at your workplace. Talk to a group of TechREACH students about the type of jobs people at your workplace do. Or offer to chaperone a field trip to another location. Contact the Mentor Program Coordinator for more information.
Partner
If your organization can help TechREACH support students’ interests
in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM), or support
their well-being and leadership skills, we would like to talk to
you! Contact
Karen Manuel
to tell us about your organization’s work.
Funding or In-Kind Donations
We are looking for additional funding and equipment to support our
TechREACH clubs. Here is a sample of what we need:
- Technology equipment: computers, digital cameras, video cameras,
printers, and software such as Microsoft Front Page, Macromedia
Flash and Dreamweaver, and Adobe Photoshop Elements
- Science equipment: probeware, microscopes, and chemistry equipment
- Funding for field trip transportation
- After school snacks
TechREACH publishes names of program donors on the program Web
site and printed materials. TechREACH is a program of the Puget
Sound Center for Teaching, Learning and Technology, which is a non-profit
organization. Donations are tax-deductible.
