Break the Cycle of Poverty
Through STEM Education
Come join us on our journey
What Drives Us?
Africa and India have very low college enrollment. In the US STEM workforce, people of color comprise a very low percentage of total workers.
At Shooting Stars, we are motivated to address these inequities through the power of financial scholarships, training, and STEM education programs.
What Do We Do?
For STEM College Scholars in India and Africa , Shooting Stars offers financial scholarships, training in various areas like English, and professional mentorship.
In short, we exist to fuel their ambition so that their dreams become lifelong realities.
Our Impact
Investing in Shooting Stars is investing in a future that is more equitable. The impact of our work not only benefits scholars, but also has a profound impact on their families and communities as well.
By increasing access in underserved communities, we hope to change the landscape of education, making it more equitable for all, regardless of race, ethnicity, or socio-economic status.
