Continuing Education Program Fund

Supported by businesses and donations from the community, the Continuing Education Program Fund provides students with scholarships to take continuing education classes. The fund brings many people to a college campus for the first time and, in many cases, has sparked an interest in pursuing higher education. Inspired by their experience, students of all ages have gone on to take credit courses to earn a degree.

The fund also gives children from low-income families the opportunity to participate in our programs for little or no cost.

If you would like to donate to our Continuing Education Program Fund, please fill out our donation form.

Volunteer

We are always looking for volunteers to work with our youth programs, to teach classes and to help coordinate and run programs. In Waukesha, we need professionals from the community to teach at our annual Girls’ Engineering, Math & Science conference. If these opportunities interest you, please fill out our volunteer form and return it to our office.

We appreciate all of our donors and want to give a special thank you to last year’s sponsors of our Girls’ Engineering, Math & Science (GEMS) program and our Engineering and Leadership Exploration Partners in Education.
