The Challenger Learning Center of Colorado (CLCC) will us the ECB Giving Back - Looking Forward Grant of $10,000 general operating for CLCC. A general operating grant would support two of CLCC’s flagship programs: 1) The Adopt-a-School program provides state-of-the-art STEM education to Title 1 and underserved elementary schools. 2) The Engineering Pathfinders Academy allows students in grades 8–10 to experience a variety of engineering disciplines in a low-pressure format. CLCC has offered the Pathfinders curriculum in a four-week summer camp for the past two years, and in the 2025–2026 school year, it will provide this service as an afterschool program in Harrison School District 2, which is an underserved district in Colorado Springs. Both of these programs aim to provide world-class STEM education to students throughout the Pikes Peak region, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
