"Often times young women need a role model to look up to, but sometimes that role model ends up looking up to them." Erica Brunner, one of our LAUNCH mentors could not believe the impact these girls are making. "These young ladies are truly exceptional. I cannot talk about them without getting goosebumps. I cannot wait to see the things they do. And I have to say that in a world where the negative is at the forefront and there are times you question the world your children a...re being raised inthese beautiful ladies came into the picture and gave me hope of a better world and beautiful changes on the horizon. I am truly honored to have been selected as a mentor and to have helped. I respectfully throw my hat in the ring for any future endeavors you take on with this program. This is an astonishing program that I want to see thrive. And as I said before, I would be honored to have any of the ladies contact me if they ever have questions, would like advise, want a mentor, ask for connections, etc."

As we being planning for our next STEM Summit take a look at some of our last tour stops! We took students on tours through Duolingo, Allegheny Health Network, Giant Eagle and so much more! Check them out here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist
