What is STEM 4 Youth?
STEM 4 Youth is a community organization that started by igniting a passion for STEM across the minds of youth across the state of North Carolina. Now, we are expanding our mission to the entire country.
Here at STEM 4 Youth, we’ve always believed that education should be taught through three core principles: creativity, innovation, and leadership. Through our organization, we hope that all students across the country, specifically, those in North Carolina, can truly benefit and understand the applications of these three core principles in STEM and their future lives.
As high school students, we demonstrate what science, technology, engineering, and math are all about to young students through those three core principles to create engaging and memorable experiences that’ll last a lifetime.
What Do We Do?
Implement
Hands-On Learning
We believe that a hands-on curriculum built around critical thinking and problem-solving is a more holistic and real-world approach to learning.
Promote
Equal Opportunity
Our program is free to everyone but we specifically target more underdeveloped communities to close the opportunity gap.
Inspire
Curiosity in Youth
We want to instill the knowledge that we’ve gained through memorable experiences in the past to inspire the love of learning and curiosity in the youth of today.

After-School Kids Activities
STEM 4 Youth's after-school program at elementary and middle schools offers a hands-on learning experience, giving students the opportunity to explore a variety of STEM concepts. Through engaging activities aligned with our curriculum, students can also develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. They engage in projects that involve building and experimenting through several applications of science, technology, and engineering over the sessions. Our mentors provide mentorship and support, fostering curiosity and a love for learning. The program provides a dynamic and enriching educational experience that gives students the opportunity to explore many different topics in the STEM world.
Tutoring Program
STEM 4 Youth's Tutoring Program offers a diverse set of classes ranging from STEM to the Humanities. Our tutoring is done virtually through Zoom, which allows for a COVID-19 free environment. Our tutors are made up of highly accomplished college and high school students from across North Carolina.
STEM Workshops
Over the course of the year, we hold multiple STEM related workshops that can help students learn about topics they are interested in. These include computer science, mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, and more.
