STEM Scholars Award for Women

Advancement and achievement in science, technology, engineering and math

The United States of America workforce of the future will be heavily dependent upon technology. As the STEM field continues to expand, there will be a need for diverse experts to create, develop, build and maintain technology. The STEM Scholars Award for Women Scholarship will afford many young scholars with an interest in the STEM field the opportunity to pursue a college degree with financial support and support a pipeline of future STEM professionals who can pursue careers in government, private industries and entrepreneurship opportunities. The long-term goal of this fund is to provide 1,000 scholarships over the next 10 years to women majoring in a STEM field at Delaware State University (DSU).

Founded by DSU alumna Sonceré Whitecloud Woodford '91, who earned dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Mathematics and Computer Science and is CEO of The Women's Confidence Foundation, this scholarship reflects a commitment to helping the next generation of women pursue bold futures in STEM.

These women are preparing for careers in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, medicine, healthcare, research, and other STEM-related fields. They have the talent. They have the vision. They are doing the work. Your generosity can help ensure that financial barriers do not stand between them and the future they are working to build.

Every gift matters. You do not have to fund the entire journey to make a difference. You simply get to help her take the next step.

Invest in her education. Invest in her confidence. Invest in her future. Please donate via the form below. Thank you!
