Stemsaskb - Stem For Sask Black Kids

05/30/2026

Registration is open for the first Saskatoon Black kids STEM FEST

Gifts and STEM kits for first 50 early bird registrations!

Every child is a natural innovator born with limitless curiosity.

Too often, Black youths are underrepresented in technical fields because of a lack of early exposure and visible role models. That’s why STEM FEST exists! 💡

The first event of its kind in Saskatoon, creating an empowering and engaging space where Black kids and teens can see themselves reflected in the future of science and technology.

Because it is easier to ignite a passion for innovation early than to build pathways later.

Hi amazing parents!

As we come to the end of February (Black History Month), I want to share a few excerpts from two well-received speeches I gave in honour of this important month. One message stood out strongly: we must move away from just commemoration to transformation — and transformation means intentionally building Black futures.

For me, that transformation is reflected in the work we’re doing at STEMSASKB. Through our coding clubs, math programs, science activities, and hands-on learning, we’re supporting Black families, meeting parents where they are, and creating safe, joyful spaces where our kids can explore and thrive.

We are helping our children see themselves early as scientists, engineers, programmers, and innovators — not someday, but now. Thank you for being part of this journey as we build confident, capable Black futures together 💫
