Mission and programs · 2022

Primary exempt purpose

To inspire young underrepresented and marginalized students to see themselves represented in the field of science and technology.

  • Project LEDO has always believed in the power of partnerships and collaboration. We understand that by joining forces with other local organizations that share our core values, we can make an even bigger impact on the communities we serve. Through these strategic alliances, Project LEDO has formed a strong and united front to address the pressing issues faced by BIPOC communities. Our programs have gone to two new schools and two additional community partners (Cairo and Camp-ELSO) increasing the number of black students and therefore impact. A big accomplishment in our program is the fact that we won a statewide robotics competition. Our team that won was primarily immigrants and people of color. We delivered another 65 computers to our communities of color shortening the digital divide. Our Program has partnered with AT&T in efforts to support our mission. These partnerships have not only increased our resources but also extended our reach into new areas. By collaborating with like-minded organizations, Project LEDO has been able to expand its programs and initiatives to two additional school districts. This means more students from diverse backgrounds now have access to STEM education opportunities. Moreover, these alliances have enabled us to tackle one of the most substantial challenges faced by marginalized communities - the digital divide. By partnering with local organizations that share similar goals and values, Project LEDO is creating a lasting impact on underserved communities. Together, we are making strides towards inspiring BIPOC youth to become leaders in STEM fields while simultaneously addressing critical social issues such as educational inequality and digital access disparities. Through this partnerships Project LEDO has brought resources to the communities in efforts to shorten the digital divide. Through our Lego Robotics program our students get to build leadership skills, communication skills, and more importantly community.
