My Nonprofit Reviews

SARSEF has benefited generations of young southern Arizonans by opening a door to the wonders of science understanding and creating a curiosity about our world that changes lives. I first encountered SARSEF as a young woman, employed at our local Science Center. I had worked in theater and other jobs without much focus and was astonished to discover such a diverse group of dedicated citizens who wanted to support public education, teachers, families, and especially children, by hosting a regional science fair each year that connected them to the amazing science resources in our community. Through my volunteering with SARSEF over the years, I have had the honor to work with top scientists, talented school teachers and community leaders. I have been amazed by children's creativity, spontaneity and sheer joy at using simple to very complex systems thinking to work through an interesting problem or hypothesis and report on outcomes. We are a science community and I can say that with pride because SARSEF has been there building a strong foundation for every child and connecting them to a better future.
