Introducing the WIS STEM Diversity in Leadership Award!

At UVic Women in Science, we're proud to establish this prestigious award, designed to offer vital financial support to exceptional graduate students who are Black, Indigenous, or Women of Colour and are true trailblazers in the field of STEM. We're on the lookout for individuals who embody:

  1. A unwavering dedication to advocating for women in STEM.

  2. A burning passion for academic research, leadership, and community outreach.

Our mission? To endow this award with a target fundraising goal of $25,000.

But we can't do it alone – we need your support to turn this vision into reality. By clicking the DONATE button below, you can make a one-time or recurring contribution.
