Maker Mindz
Maker Mindz is a nonprofit organization. At our core, our mission is simple yet powerful: to ignite children's natural curiosity and foster a deeper understanding of the world around them. By building this foundation, we help cultivate a lifelong love for learning.
Challenges: 92% of boys and 97% of girls lose interest in STEM if not engaged by the 5th grade.
Only 33% of eight graders are interested in STEM majors.
Only 6% of high school seniors will get a bachelor's degree in a STEM field.
Our approach is centered on hands-on, interactive learning experiences. We design immersive environments and develop engaging educational materials that encourage exploration, experimentation, and critical thinking. We aim to empower children to ask questions, seek answers, and discover the joy of learning on their own terms. Through a combination of innovative learning kits, online & in-person workshops, we strive to create an environment where curiosity thrives, and a lifelong love for learning is born.
We believe in the power of the community to ignite change. As Seth Godin says, "A group needs only two things to be a tribe: a shared interest and a way to communicate."
We are building a tribe of passionate individuals who share one powerful mission—making STEM education accessible to all. Whether you're an educator, an engineer, a creator, a designer, a parent, a student, or simply someone who believes in the future of science, technology, engineering, and math, you belong here.
Let's communicate, collaborate, and create a brighter future through STEM!
