EmpowerLA
EmpowerLA is a student-led organization at UCLA aimed at inspiring underserved elementary students through STEM education. Our program connects UCLA student mentors with the UCLA Community School, where they present engaging lessons on designated STEM topics. After the presentations, students participate in hands-on projects that reinforce the concepts they've just learned, allowing them to explore STEM in a fun and interactive way. The goal of EmpowerLA is to foster curiosity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills in young learners. By giving students the opportunity to apply what they’ve learned through project-based activities, we aim to make STEM more accessible and relatable. Our UCLA mentors are dedicated to creating an enriching learning experience that not only builds knowledge but also empowers students to see themselves as future scientists and engineers. EmpowerLA is committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of students by providing them with the tools and support to succeed in STEM fields.
