Our Physics Outreach program is powered by a fleet of trailers packed with engaging science equipment, enabling us to bring interactive demonstrations to students throughout the region. However, keeping our trailers on the road requires ongoing maintenance and support. Currently, we need:
- New tires on one van
- Two oil changes
- Brake replacements for one van
- Minor repairs to two trailers, including the body and trailer door
Your contribution to our Physics Outreach Trailers will help cover essential repairs and equipment upkeep, ensuring that we can continue delivering hands-on science experiences to students in every community we visit. All gifts under $400 will go towards the repairs of our trailers and vans.
School Site Visits
Each year, we visit dozens of schools, introducing hundreds of students to scientific concepts like torque, pressure, momentum, and superconductivity in ways that are fun, engaging, and inspiring. From August to October 2024 alone, we’ve held 27 demonstrations at local schools, such as Fremont Elementary in Fowler, John Adams in Madera, and Riverview Elementary in Fresno, providing demonstrations to over 930 students. These school site visits bring science to life and spark curiosity in young minds, planting seeds for future scientists, engineers, and critical thinkers.
Your donation of $400 or more will be designated to support these school site visits. Your support at this level ensures that more schools can experience our interactive demonstrations, enabling students to explore and understand the world around them. Thank you for helping us keep science on the road and in the classroom!
