On Monday, January 15th, six members and two-family supporters of the Crystal City-Pentagon Rotary Club participated in Volunteer Arlington’s MLK Day of Service. Their work supported efforts to engage and inspire girls in STEM.
Working together with other volunteers, CCPRC members packed 2,800 hands-on STEM kits for local schools and community partners.
The STEM kit packing event was organized by the Rosie Riveters, a nonprofit that engages preschool to high school girls in STEM and equips them with an enduring growth mindset. The organization offers interactive, hands-on programs that give girls from diverse backgrounds a fun space to imagine, learn, and play.
