OpenEyes Technologies Gives Early Support to New Aspire2STEAM Program Students4Students

DAVENPORT, IA, UNITED STATES, January 18, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Aspire2STEAM.org, which provides educational scholarships, recognition, and mentoring to young women and girls who are working towards careers that require education in science, tech, engineering, the arts, or math (STEAM), has received a significant gift from OpenEyes Technologies. Following the busy hustle and bustle of Aspire2STEAM’s year-end advisor meeting — where the team, scattered across every time zone in the United States, came together to discuss the nonprofit’s future plans —Trushant Mehta, CSM, PMP, Co-Founder and CTO of OpenEyes Technologies Inc. (an Aspire2STEAM advisor), announced that he was giving a gift to support Aspire2STEAM’s new Students4Students program. “I was so impressed by this evolutionary program that I knew it was something we needed to contribute to,” said Mehta.

The Aspire2STEAM brand-new Students4Students program is being spearheaded by Aspire2STEAM’s Madelyn Qayyum, Marketing Coordinator, and Logan Williams, Communications Lead. This program, which is announced here, will integrate students and recent graduates into the organization so they can teach today’s younger generations how to run a nonprofit. Another additionally important goal of the program is to help guarantee Aspire2STEAM’s legacy, a way to continue to operate and fund scholarships far into the future.

Mehta leverages his technological expertise and business acumen to collaborate with a myriad of organizations across America and internationally. He is also a dedicated advocate and supporter of various philanthropic causes. His heart is, however, tied to youth-focused missions. “I’m a firm believer that nothing is more important for young minds than hands-on experience,” said Mehta. “You could be taught by Albert Einstein himself, but if you’re not materializing your knowledge, if you’re not applying new concepts onto paper, at the office, in the laboratory — wherever, then you aren’t really doing anything. That’s why I’m so passionate about Students4Students. In a world where having a dozen degrees and certifications are the norm, experience becomes everything. We need more hands-on opportunities for young professionals, and we are delighted to support Aspire2STEAM, as they are doing just that.”
