About This Microchallenge
We are setting an ambitious goal for this year’s MIT 24-Hour Challenge: If 200 of you give, a challenger will kindly donate $20,000 to MITES. Can we count on your support? Together, we can help change the face of STEM fields.
About MITES
This year, we celebrate 50 years of MITES—a program that has empowered thousands of students from underserved backgrounds to dream big, believe in themselves, and achieve extraordinary success in STEM. Through our three free programs—MITES Saturdays, MITES Semester, and MITES Summer—we’ve been engineering a world of inspiration, innovation, and impact.
Join us during the MIT 24-Hour Challenge to shape the next 50 years. Your support will open doors for future STEM leaders and help them build a brighter, more equitable future. Give today and be part of the dream.
*If you do not see a particular fund listed, you can donate on the MIT giving site and still be counted in the MIT 24-Hour Challenge.
