Become a Volunteer
The STEM Action Center is excited to offer a variety of volunteer opportunities. With our new Innovation Hub at our offices in South Salt Lake, there is plenty of space and tools available for many different groups and projects.
Some volunteer opportunities include running Micro STEM Fest events, helping us design and implement new curriculum, coaching and mentoring robotics teams, administrative work, helping with special events, and more.
If there's something not on the list that you'd like to volunteer for, let us know! We know there are lots of industry experts and bright minds out there that can help us with some great projects.
