Grant Helps Goleta Schools Build STEAM
The success of a STEAM lab funded by a Women's Fund grant has inspired the Goleta Union School District to fund the expansion of the pilot program. This will multiply the power of our grant to serve 3,600 students beyond the 200 we originally impacted.
In May 2020, the Women’s Fund granted $65,000 to the Goleta Education Foundation to fund a state-of-the-art STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) Lab at El Camino Elementary School.
