STEM City Chicago is revolutionizing education through Solar Punk innovation! We're thrilled to announce our latest student-led project: The Smart Solar Safety Jacket! Our brilliant Melanated Solar Punk students are designing wearable tech that combines sustainability with community safety. What makes this jacket special?

Imagine a computer school jacket powered by solar, equipped with HD cameras, GPS tracking, and WiFi connectivity – all running on a Raspberry Pi brain!

This isn't just fashion; it's the future of protective wear designed by our Afro Solar Punks, for our community. Rethinking STEM marks the beginning of this exciting journey. Students will learn hands-on skills in: • Solar power engineering • IoT programming • Wearable tech design • Environmental sustainability

On behalf of the School Management Committee (SMC), the Staff and the entire students of Cape Coast School for the Deaf/Unit for the Blind, I wish to express our profound gratitude to you the President, all the Executives and the entire Math EEEs members for your kind donation of educational supplies and two laptop computers towards teaching and learning in Cape Coast School for the Deaf/Blind when you visited the school a few months ago.

Your intervention helped to address the Sustainable Development Goal 17 that focuses on strengthening the means of implementation and revitalizing the global partnership for sustainable development technology. I want to inform you that the machines are helping diverse activities in the school. We are extremely appreciative for your generosity. The school cannot thank you enough for that great support. You make a big positive impact on the lives of the students since their grades in IT will be greatly improved due to the presence of the computers. The school is once again thankful to you for being empathetic to the plight of our less privileged students. We thank you for your timely intervention and continuous support with love. God richly bless you for your kind donation.”

GSU PUBLIC HEALTH BRIGADE In the summer of 2019, GSU was able to refocus on the public health aspect of the service-learning experience and brought students to Ghana for the first time on a Public Health Brigade. The brigade incorporated experiential learning course content, and examined the relationship between the Transatlantic Slave Trade and Mass Incarceration in America.

In May 2023 GSU Public Health Brigade Team asked Math with EEEs, Inc., to partner with us to supply school supplies, teaching materials, and hygiene products to the school children in Ekumpoano, Ekumfi District, Ghana. It came through in such a significant way. We arrived in Ghana with 20 suitcases full of materials. .

In May 2025, Dr. Nicole Bing STEM /Public Health Brigade will return to further enhance university students' service-learning abroad as they empower the school children of Ekumpoano, Ekumfi District.

CPASS CPASS Creating Pathways and CPASS Creating CreatingPathways Pathwaysand and Access Access for Student Success Accessfor forStudent StudentSuccess Success The Creating Pathways and Access for Student Success™ (CPASS) Foundation was created to attract, encourage, educate, guide, and increase the number of promising, yet underrepresented Illinois students in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEMM) related professions. We are committed to providing a holistic educational foundation and exclusive access to career development resources for students to persist in STEMM careers.

We are immensely grateful to Math with EEEs for the generous donation. While the original intent was to cover ACT/SAT fees, we maximized the impact of the funds by supporting additional needs related to MCAT preparation. We intend to provide the remaining amount to one of our students for ACT/SAT registration in the future. This strategic allocation has directly benefited several students, enhancing their opportunities for academic and career success.

Thank you for your continued support and commitment to our mission. We look forward to further collaborations in the future to support our students in their educational journey.
