Here is our testimonials from children and program coordinators from program sites!

4th Grader at Abode Sunrise Village
Abode Sunrise Village

" I didn’t know you could actually see DNA! Squishing the strawberries and watching the DNA come out was so cool. I felt like a real scientist with my goggles and gloves!" - Strawberry DNA Extraction Experiment

Children's Program Coordinator
Abode Sunrise Village

"The science volunteers brought so much energy and excitement to the program. The elephant toothpaste demo was a hit—students were curious, engaged, and asking tons of great questions. It was a perfect mix of learning and fun!" - Elephant Toothpaste Reaction

Tulasi, child at BOSS
BOSS Shelter Programs

"Tulasi who just started elementary school was impressed with how the cracker in the bag was digested by the acid in the bag. When the STEM leader told her that this is how digestion happens in our stomachs she was astounded and just stared at the bag and then her stomach."

Carmen Salvatierra
Director at BOSS Shelter Programs

"Several children in the group stated that when they first heard that we would be studying science on the weekend they thought it would be boring and they were all pleasantly surprised about how much fun it was."
