Promoting STEM and Arts Education with Miss United States 2022

This year, we partnered with Art Technically founder and Miss United States 2022 Lily K. Donaldson during her campaign across the United States to promote STEM education for underserved communities.

This year, we sent books to schools with a total of 5,560 students 48% of which receive free/reduced lunch, 75% of which don’t meet grade-level proficiency for reading, and 67% of which don’t meet grade-level proficiency for math. Over 100 books were donated in total to elementary and middle schools in each of Tennessee’s 9 congressional districts.
