Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
Increase youth exposure, provide access, and develop skills in science, technology, engineering, and math-related studies (STEM), degrees, and careers.
Activities or mission (Part I)
To provide educational instruction to youth that encourages their personal development. Class Matters Inc. empowers underrepresented "at-hope" youth ages (11-18) to become scholars, skilled professionals, and servant leaders through hands-on STEM education, mentorship, and leadership training. We believe that STEM is more than a career pathway; it is a mindset. By teaching the STEM mindset, students learn problem-solving, decision-making, and conflict resolution skills that support both their short-term academic growth and long-term post-secondary planning. Since its founding, Class Matters has impacted 4,319 underrepresented youth. Utilizing a combination of virtual and in-person sessions, Class Matters' impact on underserved communities continue to grow.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
