Giving Tuesday - Support our Rewald/Perazza Torch Award Endowment

11/30/2020

0 Comments

COVID has thrown quite the wrench on everyone's plans for 2020 - but one thing has not changed - SWE Detroit’s commitment to STEM, especially our Teachers! On this Giving Tuesday, please support us in raising funds for our Rewald/Perazza Torch Award.

This award was created to honor two SWE Detroit members who we lost in 2016 - Josie Rewald and Lisa Perazza - who had a passion for mentoring and supporting women in technology.

The Torch Award is symbolic in allowing us to continue Lisa and Josie’s love of “passing the torch” to future generations. After one year of interest, the endowment would provide $1,000 (annually) to fund the recognition program, which would be split amongst two teachers who are focused on mentoring young women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). The recognition would enable continued support of their mission in the form of engineering kits for the awarded teachers, who might not otherwise be able to obtain such resources.

Help us light the torch and support our teachers. Any amount helps.

To donate via credit card or paypal, please visit http://www.swedetroit.org, scroll to the bottom left and click the yellow Donate button. Under the optional drop down menu, please select “Scholarship - Torch Award”. To donate via check, please add “Torch Award” in the memo and mail to SWE Detroit, PO Box 2978, Southfield, MI 48037-2978.
