The non-profit FELLOWSHIP WARRIORS INC will acquire copies of the award-winning book “STEM Pioneers and Visionaries: A Compendium of African American Innovators and Inventors in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics” and donate them to at-risk children in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area to help inspire them to strive for success.
Author FRANCES PRESLEY RICE said: “In the annals of history, there are ample African American leaders in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields who by their cleverness and resilience transformed every component of American life. Our nation’s capacity and innovation are extended when we nurture our youth and encourage them to explore the possibilities of STEM field jobs. The horizons of our youth and their dreams expand when we share instances of highly successful African Americans represented in STEM fields.”
ALDIS PRESLEY, President and CEO of Fellowship Warriors and Coach of the Southwest Warriors ABA Basketball Team, said: “This book is invaluable for students.”
The Organization’s endeavor to donate this book available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Walmart and other booksellers is part of their youth development basketball mission designed to help teach young people about the importance of making good decisions about their education, health and future.
To accomplish this mission, the organization uses traveling basketball clinics that focus on resolution and communication skills, teamwork, service, physical fitness and nutrition. Donations are welcome from all who wish to assist the Fellowship Warriors achieve their mission of helping youth achieve their dreams while highlighting the remarkable contributions and enduring impact of African Americans who have broken barriers, inspired change, and left an indelible mark on the fabric of U.S. history.
