Grant: Youth Radio Science Club

Date: March 2025
Amount: $20,000

In 2022, the World Genesis Foundation, in collaboration with the Yavapai Amateur Radio Club, received an ARRL Foundation Club Grant and developed a program to build students’ interest in amateur radio, radio science and space research. With a grant from ARDC, they will grow a number of their current programs.

They are aiming to reach over 500+ students and their families over the next two years in Yavapai County schools with in-school and afterschool STEAM classes for K-12 students. Their goal is to have families participate in activities and community events with free classes, testing, study material and memberships. Every graduating youth will become a part of the Youth Radio Science Club, led by the youth, that will create long-term sustainable activities for them in the radio sciences, learning and STEAM.
