Awareness Event: “An afternoon with STEM Bridge”
Over 65 young girls had the opportunity to attend our maiden interactive awareness event- An Afternoon with STEM Bridge. This event was an opportunity for students to interact with diverse and accomplished women, be exposed to a wide variety of STEM programs and careers, participate in enrichment activities, and learn about the organization.
We enjoyed hearing from Mrs Owen Omogiafo, President and CEO of Transcorp plc and Mrs Uzo Oshogwe, Managing Director of Afriland Properties plc, during our leadership panel as they discussed how we can encourage more Nigerian girls into STEM roles and empower them for leadership positions. As well as Pan-Atlantic University’s School of Science and Technology, Dean Dr. Darlington Agholor and their 300 level female students who came to share their college experience and STEM programs.
It was an afternoon filled with learning, fun and prizes! Congratulations to our raffle draw winners who went home with a STEM Bridge tote bag and an Amazon Echo dot!

Annual Charity Event: “A Seat at the Table”
Christmas is the season of giving, and STEM Bridge is doing its part by giving back to our local communities.
Our annual charity event this year was a career panel that gave students the opportunity to interact with diverse and accomplished women role models, learn from their experiences and personal career journeys. We had women working in the tech, finance, creative industries as well as founders of start-ups and young entrepreneurs who came to share their knowledge and stories. This forum was exciting, informal and enlightening. Each student left with a gift bag filled with goodies and merchandise from MTN Nigeria!
