Mission Statement

Rosie Riveters is a 501c3 nonprofit whose mission is to equip and empower girls from diverse backgrounds to be strong, confident, and competent in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) by providing a fun space for to imagine, learn, build, and play.

About This Cause

Through every program and every project Rosie Riveters uses the skills of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, or STEM, to connect with girls aged 4-14 to engage and ingrain in them that failure is valuable. That the bumps and bruises of learning and life are what will ultimately help them to succeed. For many it can be a very emotional journey, getting it wrong can be frustrating and hard. In fact, the words we hear the most when we begin a sessions are “this is hard” and “it’s not fair.” But by the time we’re done, everyone has completed a project- they’ve succeeded and have a gained an understanding of the power that comes from learning when you just jump in and try. Our participants walk away not only with an increased confidence in their abilities but a road map on how to use those abilities in a highly competitive marketplace and in life.
