Mission Statement

"To encourage science awarness and literacy among children of diverse ethnic groups, by providing innovative, relevant, and interesting yet challenging hands-on science activities that will enhance their academic achievement, self-confidence, and creativity."




The MYGEMS Science Center Gives Back!
As the founder and director of MYGEMS, I strongly believe in our children's educational future. We promote scholastic achievement, scientific awareness and literacy for children of all ages and inspire them to pursue a science career upon graduating from high school. 

On May 23rd the MYGEMS Science Center awarded a $500 scholarship to Ms. Paris A. Pratt of Greensboro, North Carolina.  She was awarded this scholarship based upon several criteria.  A 2008 graduate of James B. Dudley Senior High School with a 3.9 GPA and in the top 10% of her class, Paris has been accepted to North  Carolina A&T State University to pursue dual bachelors of science degrees in chemistry and chemistry education with a minor in chemical engineering.  Congratulations to Ms. Paris A. Pratt!
