Celebrating 25 Years of SMASH

For 25 years, SMASH has believed in the potential of students long before the world sees it.

Through rigorous STEM learning, mentorship, and a powerful community of support, SMASH scholars build the confidence, skills, and networks needed to thrive in college, careers, and leadership.

Today, that investment is delivering measurable results:

• 100% of SMASH seniors are accepted into college.
• 85% graduate within five years, compared to 55% nationally.
• 70%+ go on to earn STEM degrees or enter STEM careers.

This anniversary is more than a milestone. It’s proof that long-term investment in young people creates lasting outcomes.

From high school classrooms to university campuses and the workforce beyond, SMASH scholars are shaping the future of STEM.

Your support makes this work possible.
