Since 2018, SkillSet has provided quality programming to over 270 students and 68% have received scholarships.

With the generous support of UNC Asheville, SkillSet is primarily funded by grants from organizations that are committed to improving educational outcomes for girls and non-binary youth. Supporting our work means providing students quality STEAM educational programming, with a low teacher to student ratio, led by a team of passionate and committed industry and educational professionals.

In-kind support helps us provide free or reduced-cost programming for youth and adults, purchase new tools and materials, pay our talented instructors, and expand our impact to broader and underserved audiences. Browse our wishlist for more ways to donate.

Our programming is not just limited to our location, the STEAM Studio at UNC Asheville; through strategic community partnerships, our instructors, tools, and materials travel into the community to serve and support the needs of our learners.
