A Walk for Education (AWFE) 2008
1 group - 1 goal - 1 step at a time
- When:
- April 26th - 26th, 2008
- Time: 10am – 2pm
- Where:
- William Jefferson Clinton Middle School (Directions)
3500 S. Hill st. Los Angeles, CA
Goal: To increase awareness of the opportunities available through education, particularly in STEM fields. To shatter myths about African Americans in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.
Who will benefit? Students of all ages
What will we do? Volunteers will walk door-to-door in a predominantly Black community distributing information about area college admissions, area vocational schools, GED, SAT/ACT, NSBE Resources, and financial aid.
Who can participate? Anyone who believes that education is a good thing: a NSBE member, a Greek sorority and fraternity member, a company representative, a church member, a college graduate as well as a non-college graduate. Everyone is needed in this effort.
