🔬🌎 Community support makes STEM education possible!
We are incredibly grateful to Bridgestone for its continued investment in the Ruth Patrick Science Education Center and the students we serve throughout the CSRA.
Bridgestone recently contributed more than $77,000 to support our Environmental Education Program, helping K–12 students step outside the classroom, explore the natural world, and experience science through hands-on learning. 🌿🔬
But this partnership goes far beyond one year. For 27 years, Bridgestone has invested nearly $2 million in STEM education through the Ruth Patrick Science Education Center.
Support like this makes a difference. It provides students with opportunities to explore, discover, ask questions, solve problems, and see themselves as future scientists, engineers, and STEM professionals.
Strong STEM education takes a strong community—and we are fortunate to have community partners who believe in our students and invest in their future.
Thank you, Bridgestone, for 27 years of partnership and for helping us inspire the next generation of STEM thinkers, problem-solvers, and innovators across the CSRA! 💚🎓
Kids across the CSRA get to be scientists for a day, thanks to Bridgestone! 🔬🚗
Bridgestone just gave more than $77,000 to USCA's Ruth Patrick Science Education Center, keeping their Environmental Education Program rolling for K-12 students across the region hands-on learning, right in nature, built just for their grade level.
Add it up: 27 years, nearly $2 million invested. That's a real commitment to CSRA kids.
Thank you, Bridgestone, for helping grow the region's next generation of scientists and engineers! 🎓
