MANCHESTER, NH – Manchester based nonprofit Girls at Work received a $10,000 grant from the Bosch Community Fund that will go towards increasing STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) exposure to local at-risk girls along with developing a curriculum that can be replicated for future lessons and workshops.
The positive impact of this grant and the stellar work of the organization will benefit the local economy for years to come. More so, there is an immediate need for qualified STEM talent. According to a recent survey from the Business-Higher Education Forum and PWC survey, STEM related opportunities will reach more than 2.7 million openings by 2020.
