SIM Indy is fundraising on behalf of TechPoint Foundation for Youth in the 2024 Indy Tech Gives campaign.

As the leader in technology education efforts for the state of Indiana since 2001, TechPoint Foundation for Youth is committed to inspiring our state's underserved K-12 students to explore science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). We believe that our youth should be equipped to address Indiana's growing demand for a skilled workforce. In 2023, we impacted more than 55,000 students across all 92 counties in Indiana.

TechPoint Foundation for Youth aims to forge direct pathways to work-based learning opportunities for students statewide. Through our STEM Success Pathway, we empower students to not only excel in STEM subjects but also to have equal STEM career access.

NextGen STEM, TechPoint Foundation for Youth’s new post-secondary success initiative builds stronger connections between high school students and post-secondary STEM education and STEM career opportunities. The program helps students and trusted adults identify and access STEM college exploration opportunities and post-secondary STEM programs, successfully apply for financial aid, and connects students with apprenticeships, internships, work-based learning programs, and field trips.

Xplore is a newly launched program in partnership with TechPoint that aims to immerse a select group of high school students in the Indiana tech scene across a stimulating 4-week summer journey. Participants will complete four paid micro-internships at a different leading tech company each week, where they will learn from on-site professionals and engage in online work simulations, offering invaluable insights into diverse tech careers.

By making a donation of $50 or more to TechPoint Foundation for Youth, you're investing in the future of our workforce and powering the next generation of founders and tech workers in Indiana.
