Support Girls in STEM: Sponsor a 2016 Tween Tech Attendee!
In response to nationwide demand for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programs, AAUW of New Jersey has begun augmenting the Summer Tech Trek Camp program for 8thgrade girls with a winter Tween Tech event for middle school girls.
We need your help: Sponsor Tween Tech attendees for $15 each or make any gift to defray Tween Tech Expenses

Many school teachers have requested fee waivers so they can use school funds to secure bus transportation.
Please consider helping to sponsor waivers with a donation of $15 per girl: $75 gets five more girls to Tween Tech; and $225 sponsors an entire school group of 15 girls.
Mail checks to Peg Fiore Stockton, University 101 Vera King Farris Drive, Galloway NJ 08205 or to Gail Hilliard Nelson, Drew University, 36 Madison Avenue, Madison NJ 07940.
Tween Tech Volunteers
Tween Tech is powered by people. Coordinators must be dedicated to the success of these programs, and understand how they fit into Solving the Equation by dispelling myths about girls and STEM, raising awareness early and often, and creating welcoming opportunities that sustain and nurture girls’ ongoing interest in STEM education and careers.
