Rice Office of STEM Engagement (R-STEM)

R-STEM 5X24 Challenge

Each year, R-STEM impacts 1,000+ K–12 students, 150+ educators, and 12 community college research interns — and growing.

Opportunity doesn’t scale itself. It requires investment.

Our goal: Raise $5,000 in 24 hours.

Every dollar directly supports scholarships, teacher professional development, and hands-on STEM materials that expand access across Greater Houston.

Your gift helps remove barriers, expand pathways, and impact futures.

$25 sparks curiosity.
$100 empowers a teacher.
$250 expands student access.
$1,000+ transforms communities.

We’re aiming for 50 donors in 24 hours.

Every gift matters.
