Trestle strengthens social movement technology so organizers can go further, faster. 

21st century movements for justice, equity and progress are fighting uphill battles — and the tech they use shouldn’t be one of them. But our organizers have not been equipped to make critical tech decisions, leaving the movement vulnerable to security threats, costly decisions and unstable tools. 

Trestle is here to help bridge the gap. 

We’re here to help get tech projects on track, protect teams and tools from threats, and ensure technology is never a barrier to victory — in ways that are accessible, culturally specific and sustainable.

Trestle Collaborative is the place for front line organizations to secure free-tech services. Since our start in 2021, we’ve worked on some of the most critical high impact issues by providing over $1.6 million in free tech services through our community of over 130+ mission-driven technologists who provide hands-on guidance to front-line organizations.

Donations ensure that cost is never a barrier for our partners on the ground.

Makers of Euki App, the Privacy-First Period Tracker. Expanding access to reproductive health + defending digital privacy. 

***Euki is the privacy first period tracker - plus so much more.***

**About Euki**
Euki is a tech-nonprofit working at the intersection of Reproductive Health and Digital Privacy to promote agency and autonomy over our collective sexual and reproductive health data, decisions and care. 

Euki co-designs with users who face specific barriers and/or risks to accessing reproductive health care- because when tech meets the needs of those who face the most barriers, everyone benefits.

**The Euki App**
Our flagship product, the Euki App, is a no-cost mobile period tracker that also connects users to research based information on censored or stigmatized sexual and reproductive health experiences including Abortion, Contraception, Menstruation, and Sexuality- all without collecting one single bit of their data.

In Nov. 2024 we added the Care Navigator- a new feature that lets users privately search, filter, and even save time-sensitive information for US-based abortion care providers and support options- all in the same app they use to track their period. 

**Since launching in 2019 on iOS and Android, Euki App has been:**

- Downloaded and trusted more than 100,000 times**,** with ~**40,000 Active Users**
- Hailed as “a critical resource,” “more than a period tracker,” and “one of the best, most empowering apps I’ve used” in uncompensated app store reviews
- Recognized by privacy experts at the** [Mozilla Foundation](https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/privacynotincluded/euki/)** and [Vagina Privacy Network](https://www.vaginaprivacynetwork.org/)


**Your support helps us expand access to reproductive health care and information while defending digital privacy.**

AWLUC is a women’s liberal arts & sciences university that empowers women to become engaged and socially conscious leaders.

The AWLUC, based in Penang, Malaysia, is a private, not-for-profit, international women’s liberal arts & sciences university in Asia, modelled along the tradition of the prestigious “Seven Sisters” colleges in the United States, which have produced graduates prominent in every field. As the establishing body of the AWLUC, the AWLP Malaysia Foundation, a registered charity in Malaysia, is dedicated to supporting establishment efforts, operational planning, and fundraising for the AWLUC. 



AWLUC builds on central characteristics of an internationally diverse and leadership-oriented liberal arts and sciences institution, including the exploration of multiple fields of study, blended learning, smaller class sizes, global immersion and a residential experience – all in an Asian context. AWLUC will produce graduates who will be ready to work and ready to lead, by offering the necessary space and environment for the development of each student’s full leadership potential. Leadership development will be emphasised in all aspects of student experience and programmes will be purposefully designed to nurture and develop leadership skills and mindsets that equip women and men to take advantage of opportunities, act as prime movers in leading social transformation in their respective communities, and drive positive change globally. 



Background:



The Asian Women’s Leadership University (AWLU) Project was founded in 2010 when three Smith College graduates with roots in Asia met through the Smith alumni network. As beneficiaries of the positive impact of a Seven Sisters college education, the founders wanted to extend the positive impacts of a supportive and empowering education to young women outside of the United States.



Through extensive discussions, the mission of the AWLUC was compiled and a Steering Committee established in 2018 to further pursue this project. AWLP Malaysia Berhad was established in 2019 as a charity in Malaysia to drive establishment efforts and strategy, and to raise funds for the university globally.



Curriculum:



The AWLUC will offer an English-medium undergraduate liberal arts and sciences curriculum with majors across a range of areas supplemented by leadership, innovation and entrepreneurship courses to women across Asia. The undergraduate concentration majors will be specially designed to respond to current regional and global concerns (including entrepreneurship, environmental issues and social justice) as well as match student and parent interest in future career opportunities. A foundation of intellectual (critical thinking, analytical skills, mastery of academic subject) and research capacities (writing, problem formulation, research methodology) will additionally feed into employment pathways through internships and applied learning opportunities on and off-campus.  Beyond its undergraduate offerings, the AWLUC will also offer postgraduate courses and executive education courses aimed at advancing gender equity in Asia at a professional and C-Suite level.



Why Support the AWLUC?



The world needs leaders who can address issues of rising inequality and the urgent need for sustainable development. Additionally, the untapped potential of women remains a lost opportunity for economic growth and social development that the world can ill afford. According to IFC Corporate Governance Knowledge Publication of 2021, which reviewed 140 studies across 35 countries, numbers show that having more women in senior leadership positions increases business profitability, reduces risks, improves community engagement, and enhances the long-term viability of companies. Similarly, studies by more than 145 foundations show that the empowerment of women has been found to be the most effective strategy in addressing social issues like poverty and disease, as well as promoting overall economic growth and equity in communities. AWLUC sees its mission to cultivate future generations of women leaders as directly tied to a better future for our world.

Asian Women's Leadership Project Malaysia Berhad

Cultivate philanthropists to invest in organizations that empower underserved Asian and Pacific Islanders (API).

APCF was founded in 1990 by API community leaders in response to the need for alternative funding for Los Angeles-based nonprofit organizations serving API communities. Prior to its incorporation, less than 0.3% of all local foundation funds went to API agencies, according to a 1988 study by AAPI Equality Alliance (formerly known as A3PCON - Asian Pacific Policy & Planning Council). In 1986, the United Way of Greater Los Angeles funded only five organizations serving APIs. To raise funds for community organizations serving API communities, APCF initiated employee giving campaigns at various workplaces, including private companies, federal agencies, state agencies, county agencies, city agencies, and nonprofit organizations.

In the past decade, APCF has diversified its fundraising efforts by developing other avenues for giving. With the growth of donor-advised funds, giving circles, grant making, scholarship funds, and capacity building initiatives, APCF has been able to cultivate philanthropy among APIs while providing multiple vehicles for donors to support the community.

As the only community-based fund serving API communities in Southern California since 1990, APCF is dedicated to increasing philanthropy amongst Asian Americans in order to build healthier communities, create a stronger unified voice, and develop leaders. Annually APCF and our 74 Network Agencies serve over 4.9 million people, over 82% of whom live at or below poverty income levels, in 47 API languages in addition to English and Spanish.

Our mission is to provide quality college mentorship for all. 

About Us.
For Students. By Students.

As recent graduates, we've gone through the challenge of juggling AP classes, standardized testing, college applications, financial aid, and searching for scholarships - all within the same semester. It can be tough, especially if you don't have anyone to help you. That's where we come in.


We started Take on College in 2019 because we noticed the lack of mentorship resources available for those who would become first-generation college students. The average college counselor can cost upwards of $100 per meeting - and as college students who can't afford that, we want to help.

 

Through Take on College, we provide an accessible program for students to learn from others who have just gone through the same process. Each one of our mentors has experience in mentoring and college essay editing. Enjoy our services; learn about our take on essays, resumes, cover letters, and more!

Capital is the oxygen to all industries. The iDAC Foundation is connecting the industry to advance a more inclusive marketplace.

The IDAC Foundation recognizes the importance of capital as the oxygen to all industries. Each industry's diverse needs and uses of capital vary, requiring a solution to synchronize the myriad of efforts across stakeholders. At the IDAC Foundation, we are committed to connecting the industry to advance:

- Financial Literacy: through partnerships and new programs, we acknowledge the full life cycle of financial literacy training and education needed to reduce wealth inequality. From early childhood education efforts to adult financial wellness programs, our goal is to ensure financial literacy becomes a fundamental right for all. 
- Financial Career Paths: we partner with various diverse intern and career path programs to generate a more inclusive workforce. Since entry level roles in financial services tend to start at higher income levels, we are investing time into programs and partnerships that train more underrepresented communities for a career in financial services, while creating mentoring programs for mid to late-stage leaders to take on roles as asset owners, chief of investment officers, trustees, board of directors, as an example.  
- Resource Sharing: we provide free thought leadership programming and research  to amplify data to leaders and institutions to make informed decisions on the state of underrepresented communities while tracking progress for a more inclusive ecosystem.

We address food insecurity, social isolation, loneliness among Asian Elders living in under-resourced & underinvested communities.

**Donate to Heart of Dinner's mission in addressing food insecurity, social isolation, and loneliness among Asian American older adults living in NYC's under-resourced and underinvested communities.**

Concerning data reveals that 23% of Asian New Yorkers live in poverty, significantly higher than the citywide average of 16% of all New Yorkers. And a staggering 28% of Asian American older adults 65+ live in poverty. As the American Bar Association reveals, Asian elders, especially those from immigrant backgrounds, endure more social isolation and mental health struggles than their peers due to linguistics, financial, and cultural barriers. These factors combined significantly impact the mental and emotional well-being of Asian American older adults in a city where depression and suicide among older adult immigrants are on the rise.

**Heart of Dinner addresses these critical community needs by home-delivering to Elders with Heart of Dinner's signature nourishing care packages of culturally thoughtful and nutrient-dense food, bundled inside lovingly hand-illustrated bags, attached with uplifting handwritten notes in the Elder's native language.**

**A Note from Our Founders about Heart of Dinner & Our Evolution from 2020-2024:**

Dear Cherished Supporter,

Thank you for taking a moment to connect with our mission. We are so grateful for the opportunity to share our journey with you—a journey born from a deep, instinctive need to care for our Elders. **In March 2020, at the onset of the global pandemic, we leapt into action to support our Asian American elder community, who were facing devastating food insecurity, isolation, and loneliness.**

While many believe the urgency that defined the pandemic has passed, **the reality for our Elders remains critical. Even now, 1 in 3 Asian American older adults live below the poverty line.** These challenges are not new. For decades, this community has been overlooked, its struggles masked by the harmful “model minority” myth, which conceals the deep inequities faced by Asian American Elders. This, combined with language barriers, technology gaps, and economic hardship, means that many continue to lack access to the resources and care they deserve.

Out of a guttural instinct to protect and uplift our Elders, we **transformed our 300 square-foot apartment on the cusp of Chinatown and the Lower East Side into a sanctuary of cultural resonance and care.** We hyperfocused on those in the most critical state, providing emergency food relief and addressing their emotional needs through handwritten notes in their native languages, making sure our Elders felt seen, valued, and dignified.

**These care packages are more than just food—they are a lifeline.** Filled with culturally meaningful lunchboxes and fresh groceries beloved in Asian immigrant households like bok choy, rice, mung beans (and more!), all lovingly bundled inside decorated bags, attached with notes of love & joy that deliver warmth, connection, and belonging.

As our work evolved beyond emergency relief, we **built Heart of Dinner into a nonprofit focused on sustainable care.** Thanks to our incredible community of donors, partners, volunteers, and small team of staff, we have transformed into a **501(c)(3) public charity that continues to nourish and uplift our Elders, week after week.**

By Summer 2024, **we have delivered over 200,000 meals to beloved Elders living in significantly under-resourced and underinvested communities across New York City.** And our work is far from over. The challenges our Elders face didn’t begin with the pandemic, and they certainly won’t end with it. **These hardships are rooted in long-standing societal and governmental neglect, where policies and systems have historically overlooked the needs of this community.**

**Looking forward, we have plans to build Heart of Dinner's own delivery infrastructure with a fleet of electric vehicles, hire a dedicated team of drivers trained in our protocols—which emphasize cultural respect and thoughtful care when serving our Elders—and we aim to increase our care package distribution by 25%.** **These efforts will build upon our ongoing commitment to delivering care packages to our Elders and existing beneficiaries with the same high level of deep care and compassion.**

**Behind the scenes, we are strengthening systems to support Heart of Dinner’s sustainable growth,** so that we can continue to serve with deep care for years to come. **With these steps, we aim to cover all five boroughs of NYC—and even dream of extending our love and care to California.**

At the heart of Heart of Dinner is our belief in nourishing souls, bridging cultures and generations, and redefining what it means to care. We proudly support local businesses, empower individuals to uplift communities, and prioritize sustainability, creating a ripple effect of positive change.

**We invite you to take action with us today. Your support will help build a world where love, dignity, and connection are not just ideals—but fundamental human rights.**

With heartfelt gratitude,

Yin Chang & Moonlynn Tsai

Founders, Heart of Dinner

Heart Of Dinner

My Dog Is My Home's mission is to increase access to shelter and housing for people experiencing homelessness with animals.

My Dog Is My Home is a national nonprofit dedicated to increasing access to shelter and housing for people experiencing homelessness with companion animals. By securing their ability to maintain their most important relationships and find adequate shelter, we ensure every family’s right to build a home.

We assist service providers like homeless shelters in expanding their programming to allow humans and their companion animals to remain together. My Dog Is My Home’s programs currently fall into three categories: storytelling, community building, and technical assistance.

STORYTELLING
Storytelling is at the foundation of our work. We believe that people who are impacted by the problem are necessarily close to the solution. My Dog Is My Home provides a platform for people with actual lived experience of homelessness and animal companionship to share in their own words how co-sheltering people and animals together contributes to ending homelessness. Through exhibitions, speaking events, and video or narrated images, we are able to educate members of the public, program administrators, and policymakers about preserving the human-animal bond in circumstances of homelessness.

COMMUNITY BUILDING
We believe in the mantra that we are “stronger together.” My Dog Is My Home holds space for members of the homeless services and animal welfare communities to come together to connect, learn from one another, and solve mutual problems. Most notably, our community building efforts have created two related but distinct stakeholder watering holes: 

1) Annual Co-Sheltering Conference
Since 2021, My Dog Is My Home’s annual conference has drawn 400-500 people together from across disciplines to hear from homeless shelter programs about co-
sheltering models in practice, latest research in homelessness and animal companionship, and relevant policy efforts across the US and globally.

2) Co-Sheltering Collaborative
The Co-Sheltering Collaborative is a peer-to-peer learning network with membership that
spans across animal welfare and homeless services. This Collaborative meets as a large group on a quarterly basis to exchange resources, troubleshoot, and hear presentations from members on the progress of their work. In between large group meetings, working groups meet to produce deliverables that work towards collectively developed goals. The Collaborative also provides a sustained community for attendees of the annual conference.

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
My Dog Is My Home also works with homeless shelters that need more hands-on assistance with developing or implementing co-sheltering. We provide customized training, consultation on policies, and resource coordination to ensure a successful co-sheltering program.

Founded in 1965 the CCC elevates underserved communities and gives voice to equality through contemporary art and education.

Chinese Culture Center of San Francisco (CCC) is a longstanding community arts organization serving San Francisco's Chinatown. Our community relationships have roots in shared struggle and resilience, founded by Chinese Americans during the Civil Rights movement to rectify racist pasts and to actively shape Chinatown’s future as its first cultural center. Our community, SF Chinatown and underserved local artists, face systemic inequalities and invisibility, which are threatened by poverty, gentrification, language barriers, historical exclusion, and a lack of cultural resources. Today, CCC builds community stability, uplifts voice, and visibility through innovative arts programming and advocacy. CCC’s approach to equitable change is through arts programming and advocacy that elevate community stories (exhibitions and walking tours), incubate local artists (artist-in-residence), and forge cross-racial and cross-sectoral collaborations (community art projects), believing in local impact, with broader regional and international impact.  

Annually, we provide a platform for over 50 artists through exhibitions, festivals, and artist residencies, educate 2,000 underserved students through social justice tours and in-school programming, engage 50,000 diverse audience members to experience art and build skills, and advocate alongside partners to achieve community-wide change. We empower low-income artists and underserved community members with the voice and tools to champion for their community, to foster a sense of belonging and safe place and enable a healthy cultural life. CCC's advocacy has attracted investments and inspired local leaders on artistic strategies for social change. Our passionate team composed of women-led, bilingual, immigrant, queer, and working-class individuals, intimately understands the community's challenges, ensuring our stories are shared on our own terms.

We grow survivor & collective power to transform the culture & systems that lead to violence in the South Asian diaspora. 

SOAR was founded in 2021 to create a home for the ecosystem of individuals and organizations addressing and responding to gender-based violence in the South Asian diaspora in the US. We know that preventing and ending cycles of violence, advocating for survivors, building solidarity within and across movements, and driving change cannot be a finite or reactionary process. SOAR is leading sustainable and collective diasporic organizing that is critical to helping us move towards comprehensive structural and cultural change. We do this by 1) growing survivor leadership to ensure survivors are centered in solutions, 2) strengthening the field to advance approaches to address and end violence, and 3) shifting national narratives to drive innovation in policies and solutions.

Together, our team and community of survivors, allies, and frontline organizations approach our work from survivor-centered, intersectional, and healing-centered perspectives to end all forms of violence and foster joy, healing, and justice for all survivors and communities.

We research and co-design empowering technologies for and with marginalized communities to dismantle barriers and foster equity.

We believe that technology can be a powerful tool that empowers previously oppressed communities and facilitates systemic changes, when the communities are directly involved to drive the development and deployment of technology. 

As an independent tech non-profit, we are a think and do tank uniquely positioned and committed to form a responsible, long-term relationship with different marginalized communities throughout the lifecycle of the engagement. Building on our engineering and research expertise, as well as lived experiences as members of minority and marginalized communities, we work at the intersection of technology, social justice, and activism.  Learn more about the scope of our work at https://aimpower.org

Our current work centers around stuttering and communication technologies. Our existing research uncovered two major technologies that have introduced additional, structural barriers to people who stutter: video conferencing tools and speech AI. 

AImpower is ready to challenge the status quo. We are developing tangible socio-technical solutions to empower people who stutter in technology-mediated communications. AImpower is 100% funded by donations and run by volunteers. Your donations will  contribution would fund the research, product, and advocacy work with the stuttering community. 

Together, we can create a future where all forms of speech are heard and respected!

SPIO is building Pacific Islander presence in higher education and professional fields through free digital resources.

Pacific Islanders remain underrepresented in higher education, professional fields, and in the media today. Often limited in opportunities in their home communities, Pacific Islanders need resources and support to pursue higher education, secure professional positions, and access economic opportunities. Now, with the COVID-19 pandemic and its disproportionate effect on Pacific Islanders and other communities of color, these resources are more essential than ever to foster a thriving, inclusive Pacific Islander community rooted in cultural heritage. 

South Pacific Islander Organization (SPIO) is a 100% volunteer and youth-led nonprofit founded in December 2018 by four Stanford alumni who believe in democratizing Pacific Islander access to higher education and economic opportunities, globally. They came together in response to the lack of cohesive Pacific representation in higher education, professional fields, and in the media.

SPIO's current international Advisory Council and Board of Directors leverage a diversity of expertise across government, corporate, higher education, and nonprofit fields which fuel their inclusive, cross-collaborative, and metrics-driven strategic plan.

SPIO's strength lies in its inclusive vision, international network, community-building capacity, digital reach, and online following. Some of their highlights to date include establishing a 501(c)3 within 6 months of incorporation, reaching over 50,000+ organic international website views in 2 years, and launching 6 digital programs accessible worldwide.

Grassroots collective of Asian migrant massage, sex workers, & allies for full decriminalization and labor rights. 

Red Canary Song centers basebuilding with migrant workers through a labor rights framework and mutual aid. We believe that full decriminalization is necessary for labor organizing and anti-trafficking.  #RightsNotRaids #SexWorkIsWork

OUR TENETS.
No more police raids and deportations. Policing is not social work. Arrest and sentencing, even with diversion programming, is not a humane way to deliver social services. Labor rights in our workplaces, regardless of immigration status.

Your donation goes towards our mutual aid fund to support workers in need; legal consultation; OB/GYN & mental health services translations; bail$; community care & policy advocacy.

The most effective way to fight exploitation and abuse is to give workers the rights and resources to create respectful and safe conditions for them to survive.

Soul Shoppe Programs is a nonprofit organization focused on youth development. It is based in Oakland, CA.

Vision
A world where people connect and support each other with empathy and compassion.

Mission
We empower communities by activating heart-centered peacemaking skills that lead to courageous action, connection and restoration.

Summary of the program
Soul Shoppe is entering the second year of delivering a new train-the-trainer model, our Peacemaker Trainer Certification Program. In this model, we train adult staff to build their own Peacemaker Program, where 4th-5th graders develop their self-awareness and communication skills while learning how to lead restorative conflict resolution interventions between peers.

We also help adults build their social-emotional capacity and knowledge of restorative practices, so they can best teach students, model behavior, and shape their community. Adult modeling of these skills is critical for student learning, and nationwide research shows that Social Emotional Learning (SEL) supports academic growth and mental health outcomes.

While this is our second year of training-the-trainer, it is built on over 20 years of Soul Shoppe history in the Bay Area. Since 2001, we have trained over 18,000 student Peacemakers ourselves, and are now hoping to increase our peacemaking efforts by training others to deliver our programming!

“This was one of the best virtual trainings I've attended, Soul Shoppe fills my heart. I left with hope and excitement.” -Stephanie Martinez, District Director of Student Programs, Daly City CA, August 2021

Funding Requested
$20,000

Contribution to peace and social consciousness
Conflict happens all the time, starting when we are just young children. The hurts we experience on the playground often stay with us through adulthood. 

We believe that when kids and adults can understand their own feelings, learn to communicate them, recognize the perspective of others, and take a step toward peace by meeting each others’ needs and resolving the conflict, in this way we can create a more peaceful world. 

Walking the Peace Path is central to our programs, and our Peace Path has been blessed by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.

Modern Marimba is a nonprofit arts organization based in Sarasota, FL. It received its nonprofit status in 2019.

Modern Marimba (MODMA) is a cultural destination for the performing arts, featuring marimba, vibraphone, and other mallet percussion keyboard music in the colonized and occupied area of Sarasota, Florida.

Our primary purpose is to amplify, reclaim, and affirm musical voices of living, formerly living, and collective peoples who have been marginalized and oppressed throughout western history.

Since its humble beginnings in late 2019, Modern Marimba has collaborated with local Sarasota arts organizations such as The Newtown Nation, Westcoast Black Theater Troupe, WSLR, FabAF Foundation, ALSO Youth, WEDU PBS, Community Foundation of Sarasota, the Patterson Foundation, and The Bay. And in conjunction with in-person programs throughout the pandemic, Modern Marimba has produced various virtual programs involving musicians, students, and audiences from all around the world.

Modern Marimba values each opportunity to affirm the importance of equity and diversity by building community with many types of people. We seek to learn, take action, and partner with those who take responsibility and action in creating sustainable and equitable musical ecosystems that dismantle oppression and dismantle white supremacy: socially conscious audiences, music creators, composers, musicians, artisans, arts leaders, musical instrument manufacturers, performing artists, educators, and students/parents; organizations in mutual aid, human rights, social justice, environmental justice, disability justice, LGBTQ2IA+ rights, and especially racial equity; and ethically conscious businesses, supporters and patrons.

We want to normalize justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion, and that’s why we prioritize our partnerships with people from the following historically marginalized groups: BIPOC (Black Indigenous, and People of Color), LGBTQ2IA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, two-spirit, intersex, asexual, non-binary, genderqueer, gender fluid, femmes and all the many Queer identities that are wonderful), people with Disabilities, and Women.

As a nonprofit organization, MODMA also seeks to participate in the lifelong process of learning by offering education programs in music for young people in Sarasota, Florida, and we hope to inspire, support, and learn from younger generations of creative, empathetic, and intelligent humans.

A unique and transformational public charter school focused on Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM).

Since 2015, the public charter school Orange County Academy of Sciences and Arts (OCASA) has carried out its mission to place an emphasis on the academic, social and physical development in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM). We believe high-quality, accessible, and equitable education is a human right. As the world around us evolves and advances, so must our schools, who are teaching the future leaders of our communities, states, and nation. STEAM skills are in high demand. As stated recently by the U.S. Department of Education STEM Department, to create a nation where our future leaders, neighbors, and workers can understand and solve some of the complex challenges of today and tomorrow, and to meet the demands of the dynamic and evolving workforce, building students' skills, content knowledge, and literacy in STEAM fields is essential.

About OCASA
OCASA operates under four guiding principles of teaching and learning: 
1.	Every child is unique; 
2.	We learn by doing; 
3.	A commitment to equality and diversity is vital; and
4.	A thriving community nurtures thriving students. 

We serve approximately 500 students annually across two campuses in Orange County, California: OCASA Elementary serves students K-5th grade in Laguna Niguel, and OCASA College Prep offers 6-10th grade classes (eventually to 12th grade) in San Juan Capistrano. Both OCASA campuses offer unique and innovative curriculum designed to help youth launch a STEAM-focused future. Through STEAM education, students are empowered to be curious learners who seek creative solutions to questions they can’t just search for online, leading students to develop the soft and hard skills necessary to succeed in college and in their careers. Additionally, our schools provide an environment that is welcoming of students and their families to learn in harmony favoring a multi-cultural spirit and awareness of the world we live in.

At OCASA, all classes are single-grade level. In addition, each student is assigned a mentor and a Self-Directed Learning (SDL) period to work on individual goals, group projects, and teacher-directed workshops. One-to-one mentoring is one of the important pillars of instruction at OCASA College Prep as we know how important it is for children to be truly connected with and cared for by the adults at their school. All students are paired with a mentor who acts as their advocate both inside and outside of the classroom. Mentors meet with their students one-on-one regularly to support their students in their progress towards their short-term and long-term academic and personal goals. The educational program at OCASA College Prep utilizes instructional practices that are proven to promote student learning. Teachers and administrators develop and implement an innovative educational model that addresses the needs of the whole child and emphasizes academic, personal, social, and emotional development.

OCASA Elementary and OCASA College Prep offer all required courses at each grade level including Math, English Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, and Physical Education. In addition, we have a number of specialty classes that vary by grade level and campus such as fine arts, music, engineering, design & modeling, computer science, and Spanish. Both OCASA campuses are classroom-based, personalized learning schools. The goal is to provide adaptable instruction to each student regardless of their age or grade-level.

What OCASA Aims to Solve 
The pandemic created an unprecedented educational rupture, the ramifications of which could last a lifetime. Although schools have adapted to our new reality as rapidly as possible, without continued adaption, the cumulative learning loss among already disadvantaged students can be catastrophic, especially in mathematics: Students of color may find themselves six months to an entire year behind.  In addition to the imminent threat of unprecedented learning loss to contend with, there is also a looming potential for equally unprecedented dropout rates. Exit from public school systems is occurring to different degrees, but the biggest drop may be at the starting point in kindergarten.  The lack of a kindergarten experience can have profound developmental impacts influencing later academic performance and even long-term life outcomes.  Especially given that early STEAM interventions are key to capturing interest and nurturing STEAM identities that can lead, this trend of kindergarten departures is especially alarming.

Compounding this, despite the perennial growth of lucrative STEM professions, gaps in STEM labor force participation remain just as persistent— the World Economic Forum has detailed a troubling skills shortage that will require 50% of all employees to reskill by 2025.  Even still, low-income students, girls, and students of color overwhelmingly fall into the gap between their STEM education and a STEM workforce with increasingly vacant positions. 
Notably, research shows that racial/ethnic minority students tend to take fewer high-level STEM courses in high school compared to White students, despite showing similar levels of interest and confidence in STEM topics —nurturing a STEM Identity among groups historically underrepresented in STEM fields and professions, therefore, is critical to accessing this interest and confidence, countering stereotypes that preclude STEM identification, and confronting the systemic inequities that consistently keep BIPOC students, girls, and low-income students out of STEM fields and lucrative, available workforce pathways.

OCASA’s STEAM Education 
In the short-term, OCASA aims to remedy the educational rupture brought on by COVID-19. In the long-term, OCASA will meet the ever-changing needs of the community with an innovative, new school model that provides families with greater options for their children’s education. Students’ level of exposure to STEAM in K–12 is a critical reason why they choose to or don’t choose pursue STEAM fields during their college education. Elementary public school students spend very little time on science, and the state sets a very low passing score on its 8th-grade science test.

At OCASA, our STEAM learning involves looking at our world through a multicultural lens in STEAM, as well as a Spanish culture and language program. Each class meets two days a week, with all STEAM+ electives striving to be hands-on, with innovative lessons tied to other subject areas and our Inquiry Arc theme. Inquiry Arcs are discrete units of study that utilize inquiry to drive learning and build students’ agency. They provide broad context and room for exploration around an interdisciplinary theme, and allow students to identify patterns and connections in their learning. Students at OCASA Elementary have meaningful time for tinkering, prototyping, and building through our on-campus lab spaces, as well as resource-rich experiences in music and the arts.

The following represents the impact of OCASA’s unique educational approach:
•	Deliberate practice in the art of short-, medium-, and long-term goal setting supports students’ development.
•	Developing a student’s self-knowledge is a key building block for lifelong learning. 
•	Deep, hands-on exploration of a diverse array of subject areas, professional fields, and work-settings not only helps expose students to new experiences but also develops self- knowledge and supports an emergent sense of purpose.
•	Students with a sense of belonging in school feel socially connected, supported, and respected. They trust their teachers and their peers. They are confident that they are seen as a person of value.
•	In order to achieve their college and career goals, students need an understanding of the transition to the college and career landscape including, but not limited to, practical, financial, and logistical requirements and admission processes. 

Technology is a part of daily instruction and contributes to the application-based approach to learning. Given the world that we share, we believe that technology proficiency and judgment is critical, and that enables students to explore and propel their learning forward. 
We see our role in the ecosystem of Orange County schools as:
1.	A lab-school focused on experiential learning as well as a test bed to prototype other nontraditional educational approaches;
2.	A thought partner responsible for sharing out best practices and lessons learned, and;
3.	A collaborator working alongside other school leaders in the pursuit of providing all children with an excellent education.

About Donations
OCASA is not a private school. As a public charter school, academic instruction is funded by the State of California. However, we rely on the generosity of the individuals, foundations, businesses and corporations to fund the annual cost of our programs, scholarships, afterschool services and community outreach programs. OCASA does not charge tuition and admits all students who wish to attend unless it receives a greater number of applications than there are spaces for students, in which case it will hold a public random drawing to determine admission.

Our unique educational approach aims to prepare our diverse and underserved students for an increasingly complex and globalized world. Additionally, OCASA provides a pathway to college and a professional career for low-middle income students who may not have had the opportunity otherwise due to limited resources. Donations would allow OCASA to continue to offer its award winning STEAM curriculum to any student, regardless of income, background and residency/school district. Together, we can ensure that all youth in our community have the opportunity to thrive academically, socially and emotionally.
