​Favorite ChemQuest Memory: 1st Door-Door Fundraising Event

“Although Matthew and I were initially nervous to go door-to-door fundraising, it ended up being a blast. We increased out funds and signups, and when parents complimented us, it was one of Matthew and I’s first realizations that we were making a difference in our community.”

Favorite ChemQuest Memory: The 1st Event!

 “Everyone was nervous, and it felt like electricity was running through the air. Though we had a couple setbacks, once we got started, my team had so much fun teaching the kids how to make playdough and watching them play with it.”

​Favorite ChemQuest Memory: The 2nd Event!

“I saw how our events teach kids fundamental science concepts through simple experiments and observed the fascination on their face! It’s awesome to think that some of them might become future chemists, scientists, or pursue other STEM fields because their interest in science was fueled by our events.”
