Where Are They Now?

YMWIC maintains its commitment to our Scholars beyond their graduation from our program. Our Alumni are given financial support through scholarships during their time in college and internships with our partner corporations and within the Foundation’s various summer and/or special programs. The Foundation offers guidance to Alumni earning their undergraduate degrees as they enter the workforce or graduate programs. Finally, Alumni are encouraged to give back to their communities and YMWIC by mentoring younger Scholars. This completes the circle of our comprehensive mission to empower and prepare economically disadvantaged and historically underrepresented youth to excel and become leaders in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) careers.
