My Nonprofit Reviews

BerkArt
Review for Community Resources For Science, Berkeley, CA, USA
Do you think science is important? This is my favorite nonprofit because it's such a huge win/win/win. K-5 teachers win because they get support in teaching a subject that many of them were never trained to teach. K-8 students win because they meet young, ethnically diverse scientists who come to the classroom to do hands-on science which is deeply engaging and can inspire them to think of science as a career. Young scientists win because they get training on how to bring their passion to a general audience. What is not to totally love about bringing over 650 scientists into classrooms each year, supporting 1,750 teachers, and improving science instruction for 43,000 elementary and middle school students, all for a budget of under $500,000.
