Sponsorships and Advertising
While 100% of profits from our sales of STEMgirls MERCH fund our prizes and scholarships, there are so many great reasons for brands and individuals to join our cause by sponsoring scholarships as well as using our site to advertise their products!
1. Brand scholarships are a great way of giving back!
Scholarships are a way for you to make a difference and give back to your community. Sponsoring all or part of a scholarship helps deserving students, who might not be able to afford higher education and reach their potential. Getting a higher education put students in a position where they can eventually contribute to future students therefore paying-it-forward.
2. Branded scholarships can raise your brand's awareness among parents, young students, and high school and college students!
High School and College students are one of the fastest growing sectors for increasing your brand awareness. Sponsoring a scholarship can elevate your brand within the STEM community. This includes families and friends as well. This is a huge segment of the population: nearly 20 million college students in the United States alone as of 2019. Sponsor a scholarship for high school students and introduce and enhance your brand. High school age students are an even larger community.
3. Brand scholarships can provide you with another avenue to recruit talent!
Building positive brand awareness can only improve your potential talent searches. High School and college students that have a positive impression of their future employers will be more likely to be a better future employee. Scholarships for high school students will pay off as well, whether they are considering employment right after high school or after college.
4. Brand scholarships help you achieve your purpose!
No matter what your purpose or cause is, brand scholarships can be tailored to help you achieve that cause. Many companies offer scholarships to female students to encourage them to pursue a STEM education just like we are!
5. Scholarships help close achievement gaps!
Not all college students start on the same playing field. Under-served and less privileged students will not easily forget who or what helped them to become successful. We focus on an under-served and under represented population of girls who are usually intellectually curious and excel in the sciences.
6. What is the right scholarship amount?
There’s no magic number. We can tell you that 100% of sponsorships, donations and all profits from our MERCH funds our prizes and scholarships. We are 100% female owned and 100% volunteer. We can arrange for a co-branded scholarship, or you can simply help with our awesome cause! Feel free to contact us anytime.
