TROY A new nonprofit co-founded by five International Academy East freshmen has given elementary students in the Troy School District a taste of science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics through its latest 10-week program.
The nonprofit, Us For Them, co-founded by Sritha Neelam, Nivy Chandrakanth, Trisha Jois, Anish Nandamuri and Siddharth Karthikeyan, began in summer 2020 as a way for the founders to share their passion for STEAM with younger kids.
“We wanted to do something for the next generation about STEAM,” Neelam said.
The group hopes to expose students to STEAM topics at an earlier age.
