Calling all former students of Stacy Branham to consider contributing $5 to show your support. Every donation, no matter the amount, makes a difference! . . . #igave5 Unlocking Challenge! When we receive 100 donations of $5 or more, an additional $500 will be unlocked!

Every 4 donations of $25 enables us to hire media support for hosting a digitally accessible workshop, including hybrid event access, sign language interpreters, professional captioning of recorded event talks, and so much more.

Just 10 donations of $150 enables us to host around 100 attendees at our flagship workshop, which takes place in person on UC Irvine’s campus every Spring.

Every 2 donations of $250 enables us to send another high school scholar to an educational conference, where they can present their research project and network with potential mentors.

Every $500 donation enables us to recruit a highly accomplished STEM leader with a disability to give a keynote presentation and mentor our students one-on-one.

Every $1,000 enables us to sponsor a graduate student to conduct regular assessments of our programming to ensure our interventions are evidence-based and impactful.

Every $2,000 enables us to sponsor one additional high school scholar through a year-long research project in a UC Irvine lab and regular meetings with mentors in STEM who share their disability identity.

When you donate $5,000 to AccessSTEM, you provide us the resources to not only sustain our existing programming, but to grow. We currently work with 4 OC school districts; with your investment, we can expand to lower-resource districts and start building bridges into STEM for students with disabilities from all backgrounds!
