For Educators:

Subject: {Name of Educator}, Unlock Your FUN & FREE STEM Toolkit!

Hello  <<<Name of Educator>>>,

What inspired you to become an Educator? Was it your desire to lead? Or was it the motivation to bring about change?

Often as Educators step foot in the classroom the realization of their initial aspirations becomes a distant dream, as day-to-day responsibilities take priority. Lack of resources, support, time, and opportunities become a roadblock to their once desire to instill the love for STEM within students or inspiring them to be future leaders.

CEF understands the struggles Educators face, but we also recognize the strength they have, to continue to push against odds and succeed. This is why we created our Fun, FREE, STEM Competition to be the very apparatus for Educators to provide their students with an exceptional experience in the world of STEM.

We understand how much support matters to you, and we do exactly that and more; before, during and after the Challenge!

Your passion for STEM is the CATALYST for building the FUTURE of STEM and CEF is COMMITTED to supporting you throughout that journey!
