Sample Messaging Sample Messaging Sample Messaging Helpful Tips Helpful Tips Helpful Tips STEM Education Inclusion Fund Our award-winning educational programs like Science-to-Go, Cube Field Trips, STEAM Festivals and Exhibits, and Camp Discovery provide students, teachers, and parents of all backgrounds the resources to grow as lifelong learners. These programs make hands-on science accessible to ALL! Field Trips Reimagined! You Can Make a Difference! Discovery Cube Connect has enhanced the field trip experience using new pre- and post-field trip digital and video demonstrations! The National Education Association (NEA) showed that regardless of gender, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status, children who attend field trips have better grades (59%), higher graduation rates from high school (95%) and college (63%), and greater income (12% higher annually). Our certified Education team has developed exciting activities that explain the science exhibits and further connect the lessons and hands-on discovery! With your help, we can ensure that our under-resourced and vulnerable students can explore Discovery Cube and experience the "power" of science to change the world! Give kids the world, and the universe, by sponsoring a student for Camp Discovery at the Cube! This summer, kids will see space like never before – up close and personal. Our fantastic Educators inspire campers with their illuminating hands-on science including playful experiments, thought-provoking science challenges, and group projects that foster confidence and leadership skills. The "Summer of Space" begins as the Discovery Cube unveils three new space-themed exhibits: Rocket Launch, Mars Rover Expedition, and Solar System Encounter. This out-of-this-world experience allows the children of Orange County to learn about our planets in a new way as they launch and land rockets, explore the red planet on a special mission, and come face to face with the solar system in a fully immersive walkthrough. Sponsor a Camper for this amazing science experience! Something New is Landing at Camp Discovery!
