"WOMEN UNITED IN COMMUNITY SPIRIT"

The Scripps Ranch Women’s Club (SRWC) is pleased to give back to our community and its residents.  We are best known for our SRHS Senior Scholarship program, however, we donate annually to multiple programs and projects!


Our Community Giving is important to us!

We have funded various educational programs & projects for:

  • Miramar Ranch Elementary
  • Dingeman Elementary
  • EBS Elementary
  • Jerabek Elementary
  • Thurgood Marshall Elementary
  • Scripps Ranch High School

STEM Initiative: Funding Available to Local Schools

Overview

The Scripps Ranch Women’s Club (SRWC) is probably best known for our annual scholarships awarded to senior women at SRHS to assist them in their transition to college.  We also help our younger residents achieve their potential by awarding elementary schools with funds to support specific programs that encourage academic achievement.  


We all know that STEM education can help our children develop strong analytic and observational skills.   Even if the child does not become a STEM professional, engagement with these topics can foster a greater curiosity for the world and drive a passion for learning that can last a lifetime.   And, of particular concern, is the number of girls who study and pursue STEM jobs is underrepresented in all STEM fields, other than health care.


STEM Initiative

The Club works with our Scripps Ranch elementary schools to identify and fund one or more programs that encourages curiosity and interest in STEM.  This program can take any number of forms, e.g., a field trip, hands-on learning tools, robotics kits or something other defined by the school.  


Our funding can supplement existing STEM programs or be used to launch a new initiative. Our annual budget for these STEM programs varies, and typically amounts to no more than $5000.   


Application
