Support Young Scientists and the Beaverton STEAM Expos!
This event will serve over 4,000 middle and high school students in the Beaverton School District!
Empower Young Scientists through the 2026 Beaverton STEAM Expos!
YOU can empower young scientists to showcase their science and engineering projects at the Beaverton 2026 STEAM Expos this March. Please help us ensure middle and high school students can access the high-quality learning opportunities offered by participation in science fairs.
BEF is partnering with Beaverton School District to close a funding gap for the March 2026 fairs as well as the costs of top finishers competing at state and national levels.
This year private support is needed to provide needed funding to the science fairs. Your contributions will help ensure that young scientists and engineers have an awesome experience this year.
