WAYS TO SUPPORT
Your support helps us do more than host workshops—it powers a year-round program that prepares underserved high school students for success in college and STEM careers. From academic enrichment and mentorship to study trips and college prep, AISS creates life-changing opportunities that wouldn’t exist without community backing.
​
Whether you choose to donate, sponsor a student, contribute supplies, become a mentor, or volunteer your time, you’re helping us build a more equitable future—one scholar at a time.
Become a Donor
Fuel a student’s future.
Your donation helps cover the real costs of preparing underserved students for college and careers in STEM—things like laptops, lab supplies, application fees, and transportation to enrichment events. Every contribution, big or small, brings us one step closer to educational equity and long-term impact. Give today, and be the reason a student gets the chance they deserve.
Become a Volunteer
Lend your time. Leave a lasting impact.
Volunteers are the heartbeat of AISS—from helping at events to mentoring students or assisting with workshops. Whether you can give a few hours or commit to a longer-term role, your presence makes a difference in the lives of our scholars. Join our community and help support the next generation of STEM changemakers.
Become a Sponsor
Invest in futures that matter.
As a sponsor, you’re not just supporting a program—you’re opening doors for students who are ready to lead in STEM fields but lack the resources. Your partnership helps fund academic programming, technology, college visits, and scholarships. Whether you're a local business or a corporate partner, your sponsorship makes lasting impact—and aligns your brand with opportunity, equity, and innovation.
Become a Friend of AISS
Stay connected. Make a difference.
You don’t need a title or a big commitment to be part of our mission. As a Friend of AISS, you’ll receive updates, invitations, and opportunities to support in ways that fit your life—whether that’s spreading the word, sharing resources, or showing up when it matters most. Every voice, every action, every friend helps move our mission forward.
Become a Guest Speaker
Share your story. Inspire the future.
Our students thrive when they hear from real-world professionals who’ve walked the path before them. Whether you're in tech, science, engineering, healthcare, or business—your journey can spark curiosity, build confidence, and show our scholars what’s possible. Join us as a guest speaker and help shape the next generation of STEM leaders.
Become a Mentor
Be the guide you once needed.
At AISS, mentors play a critical role in helping students navigate high school, prepare for college, and explore careers in STEM. By sharing your experience, offering guidance, and simply showing up, you become a trusted source of encouragement and insight. One conversation could change a life—yours included.
Become a Board Member
Lead with purpose.
AISS board members are more than advisors—they’re champions of our mission. As a member of our leadership team, you’ll help shape strategic direction, expand our network, and ensure long-term sustainability for the program. If you’re passionate about educational equity, STEM advancement, and community impact, we invite you to bring your voice to the table.
Provide Internships
Open a door to real-world experience.
Internships give our students the chance to apply their skills, explore careers, and gain the confidence they need to thrive in STEM fields. By offering internship opportunities, your organization becomes a critical part of their journey—equipping future engineers, scientists, and innovators with hands-on learning they can’t get in the classroom. Partner with us to shape tomorrow’s workforce today.
