Save DoD STARBASE by preserving funding for this vital STEM education program in the Department of Defense budget for fiscal year 2014.
DoD STARBASE (http://dodstarbase.org/) provides students across the nation with critical instruction in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) with the goal of raising the interest and improving the knowledge and skills of at-risk youth to provide for a highly educated and skilled American workforce that can meet the advanced technological requirements of the Department of Defense.
Budget battles threaten to destroy this highly successful program by deleting it from the budget or transferring it out of the DoD. We wish to ensure that DoD STARBASE continues to be funded within the Department of Defense for FY14 and for many years to come.
