Future Forward Labs believes curiosity grows best when it’s shared. That’s why we work alongside a network of partners who are opening doors for students and lifelong learners in their own communities: the science fairs we donate to, the non-profits we support, and the tutoring and test prep providers whose work we value. Each organization listed here is one we’ve chosen to stand behind because of the care they bring to learning. We’re proud to call them partners, and we hope you’ll explore what they do.
SCIENCE FAIRS
Greater San Diego Science and Engineering Fair (GSDSEF)
For nearly seventy years, the Greater San Diego Science and Engineering Fair (GSDSEF) has given students across San Diego and Imperial Counties a hands-on introduction to real scientific work. Founded in 1955, the regional competition asks students to step beyond the classroom and take on independent research: forming their own questions, designing and testing solutions, and presenting their findings to working scientists and engineers who serve as judges. For tens of thousands of participants, it has been the spark that led to careers in science, technology, engineering, and math.
