Event summary
Get ready to lace up your sneakers for the 4th Annual Women in STEM Walkathon, taking place throughout October 2024 in Atlanta, Dekalb! This inspiring virtual event invites participants to walk or run at their own pace and location, making it easy to join in from anywhere. Whether you're a solo participant, teaming up with a friend, or gathering a group, your miles will contribute to a noble cause.
The Women in STEM Walkathon is dedicated to educating, elevating, and empowering women from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). Despite women representing 52% of the workforce, only 29% of STEM professionals are female, highlighting the need for initiatives like this. By participating, you not only promote awareness and representation but also help raise funds for scholarships and career resources. Plus, our generous sponsors will match funds based on the total miles you accumulate!
Join this exciting month-long challenge, support the next generation of women STEM leaders, and receive a thank you token from HBCU STEMER for your commitment. Let's walk, run, and make a difference together!

Organiser's Description
Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are an oasis of cultural significance, both past and present, and are leading sources for black graduates. However, the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) are still lacking proper representation of minority groups, including women. Did you know women make up 52% of the workforce, but only 29% of STEM professionals? Join HBCU STEM Education Run in an event dedicated to educate, elevate, and empower HBCU women in STEM through scholarships and career resources.
Women in STEM Walkathon (WiSW) is month-long virtual walk/run that can be done anywhere you like! Participate alone, with a friend, or with a team to rack up as many miles in the month of October as possible. Our sponsors will match funds based on the miles accumulated. Participants also receive a thank you token from HBCU STEMER. Whether you are an HBCU alum/student, STEM graduate, or just passionate about education, this event is for you! Come join the virtual WiSW challenge to support the next generation of women STEM professionals.
