One of our greatest passions within the AFCEA Bethesda chapter is making top-quality education accessible to all. For that reason, we are honored to get to partner with The Children's Inn at NIH to provide engaging educational activities for the children, teens, and young adults who call The Inn home as they participate in groundbreaking NIH medical trials. Last spring, AFCEA Bethesda funded a Drop Anywhere Lab from Learning Undefeated – a mobile lab parked right outside the front doors of the Inn that housed a STEM-focused escape room, where 53 participants, ranging from young children to their adult caregivers worked together to complete challenges and find their way out. Needless to say, it was a big hit! AFCEA Bethesda also provides families staying at The Inn with KiwiCo, Inc. kits. These hands-on educational tools provide STEAM-related fun and learning for residents of all ages, inspiring curiosity as they dabble in everything from designing a rollercoaster to building their own headphones! Thank you, as always, to The Children's Inn at NIH for having us. And an extra special thank you to the bright and creative children we get to work with for reminding us that there is so much joy to be found in learning!
