“If we’re going to have some of the best engineers, scientists and technologists in our workforce, we have to help develop them. Our partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of America enables us to extend our reach, particularly to students in communities that are underserved, and to create incredible opportunities to get them excited about STEM education and the paths it offers them.”
Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer
Thermo Fisher
The demand for science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) talent is growing exponentially, while access to high-quality STEM education lags. We believe that making STEM more accessible and equitable, especially for populations who have historically been underserved, will lead us to a STEM workforce that more fully reflects our society and leverages its diversity to solve the world’s most complex problems.
Together, Thermo Fisher Scientific and Boys & Girls Clubs of America are enhancing and expanding STEM education programming and exposure across the Boys & Girls Clubs movement. Our national partnership advances equity by connecting more youth with high-quality learning experiences that can inspire and propel them into thriving STEM careers.
Healthier
Seeing our colleagues’ dedication to engaging and inspiring these students—including colleagues who aren’t in STEM roles themselves—validates our commitment to nurturing a culture of collaboration, belonging and purpose. Our colleagues understand that when they put our Mission into action by enhancing STEM education access and equity for youth who are underserved, they’re not only bolstering Thermo Fisher’s talent pipeline—they’re driving economic and social justice in the communities where we live and work.
