All ABOUT STEM AND ME
BY MORGAN JACKSON
Empowering Future Innovators Through STEM: A Transformative Community Event
At E3NexHealth, we believe that empowering communities starts with education—and what better way to spark opportunity than through the ever-evolving world of STEM?
In partnership with the Philadelphia Chapter of The Links, Inc., we proudly hosted the 2nd annual “It’s All About STEM & Me: The Sky is No Longer the Limit” fair. This groundbreaking event was designed to inspire and engage historically underrepresented students, from elementary to middle school, with hands-on experiences that bring science, technology, engineering, and math to life.
From the thrill of navigating drones through an obstacle course to exploring the cosmos in the “Mission to Space & Beyond” Indoor Planetarium, students were immersed in exciting, boundary-pushing activities that ignited their imaginations. The “Water Immersion” activity, in collaboration with the Philadelphia Water Department, taught participants about local ecosystems and the surprising role mussels play in restoring freshwater habitats, blending environmental science with hands-on discovery.
The event also offered transformative moments for students and parents alike. High schoolers shared their personal journeys in STEM,
providing younger students with practical tips and inspiration to pursue their own paths. Meanwhile, parents gained access to valuable resources to nurture their children’s curiosity and help them explore future STEM opportunities. The impact of this event is already clear: dozens of students are now dreaming big about careers in STEM, envisioning futures filled with innovation and possibility!
We extend our deepest gratitude to our incredible partners—Enon Tabernacle Baptist Church, The Links Philadelphia Chapter, and CSL Behring—for supporting our mission of health equity and helping make this unforgettable day a reality. Together, we’re building a brighter future where every student, regardless of background, can reach for the stars.
