Our long-time supporter Omega Natural Sciences and Dr. Locke has been sponsoring our programs since 2001. In 2004, they stepped up their support by committing to continuously sponsor a group of girls in a kindergarten club at the MLK Jr. School till they "graduate" from Science Clubs. When we had to stop our after school program at the King School because of conflicts with the new extended day schedule, Omega & Dr. Locke switched their sponsorship to a group of our 3rd grade girls at the Fletcher Maynard Academy, and will do so each year as they progress through 7th grade. We are so grateful for their support!
