New SPARC Vehicle! Help Us Pay Off our Loan

We have very exciting news about our mobile Science Program and Research Coach (SPARC). In 2022, PSBR was awarded a grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Education to support the expansion of SPARC to educate and inspire students across Pennsylvania in biomedical science and STEM education. As part of this grant, we were able to hire a second full-time outreach educator to bring our impactful skill-building and career connected programming to thousands more students each year.

To ensure that at each stop along our way to bringing inspiring, hands-on learning directly to students in their classrooms, we recently purchased our second SPARC van for our new educator. As an addition to any other donation, we are asking our network of friends and supporters to consider a separate donation specifically to help us raise funds to pay off our van loan. 

Any donation submitted with a note to support our SPARC Van Initiative will go directly toward paying down the principal of our vehicle loan.

Your generosity will help “SPARC” learning, skills, and inspiration for students participating in our program. If you have experienced SPARC in your classrooms, heard about the fun and knowledge a student has gained from a SPARC lesson, or you believe in the power of hands-on learning, you can ensure that more students experience SPARC by making a tax-deductible donation to PSBR.

Thank you in advance for helping us hit the road to support students across the region.
