Letters to a Prescientist
Letters to a Pre-Scientist is a non-profit organization that pairs students to professional pen pals in a STEM field of their choice, where I have volunteered as one of these pen pals. This organization is a great way to encourage scientific engagement in the youth community on a one-on-one basis.
