Project INSPIRE: Increasing the STEM Potential of Individuals Who Read Braille

About

We offer both virtual and South Carolina-based events designed to strengthen math and science skills among middle and high school students who read braille. In addition to academic enrichment, we identify and address learning gaps—both educational and life-related—to support the holistic development of these students.

What Your Donation Will Allow Us to Do:

Design and offer a 2026 Mathlete Competition to up to 50 students in grades 6-12 who are braille readers.

Complete material development for “Math Codes in a Box” and offer this program to 30 students in grades 5-9 who are braille readers.
