Message from Our CEO

Greetings, YMWIC Supporters:

Excellence is ingrained in YMWIC Core Values and woven into all practices. It is a mindset and integral component of our Mission. Our aim is to foster this mindset, not only by Scholars and staff but also by volunteers and our families.

Excellence was certainly on display at the YMWIC 13th Annual Science Expo last month. During the process of completing their science experiments, Scholars develop and/or refine research skills preparing them for college and careers.

During this Women’s History Month, we salute our girls and young women who are YMWIC members. Encouraging women to pursue STEM careers and increasing their presence in STEM fields and other professions are initiatives YMWIC is proud to champion.

Several important events take place in the final third of the Program Year. They are the NSBE (National Society of Black Engineers) MathCounts Competition, and the Annual College Tour this month; and the most popular event, our 14th Annual Scholarship and Awards Banquet on May 23. The programming and success of our organization cannot take place without the support of you, our valued Partners.

We invite and encourage you to consider investing your time and talent and/or making a financial contribution to YMWIC. I am personally available to speak with you; simply contact me to discuss becoming a valued YMWIC partner. We would love to have you join us in our pursuit of excellence.
