What is StreaMark?
StreaMark is a family foundation whose mission is to promote education and social entrepreneurship to underserved communities.
In February 2021, StreaMark launched a global pilot program to select up to 3 high school students globally and teach them, through hands-on involvement, the end-to-end process of seeking funding for a NFP--from writing a grant application to participating in the selected NFP's activities to documenting the program's impact via pre-defined evaluation criteria.
In Year 1, the Foundation selected high school students Jessica Meng (Shanghai) and Sam Baum (Shanghai/New York City). Their joint grant submission requested $15,000 to support Full STEAM Forward's Summer Camp in the United States. They also proposed to serve as guest speakers during the camp on topics of their choice that they felt would interest 3rd and 4th grade girls.
Given the success of the pilot, and the significant learnings by both Jessica and Sam, StreaMark has committed to partner with Full STEAM Program and make this an annual award open to high school students from around the world.
How to Apply
If you are a high school student with an interest in social entrepreneurship, and desire to better understand the process of applying for grant monies to deploy to needing communities, please apply to StreaMark Foundation's Social Entrepreneurship program.
Grants will be awarded in June for that coming summer's Full STEAM Forward's global summer camps. Grant amounts will range from $5,000 - $25,000 depending on the scope of the targeted summer program and target location.

Sam Young
Kylan is a student in the Central Bucks School District and joined the Robotics Club in the beginning of the 2021 school year. He has a passion for computer science, learning multiple programming languages on his own time. Kylan has built an infrared controlled toy car, created multiple 2D/3D games, and is currently making a game with artificial intelligence. Most recently, he has begun tutoring college students on computer science. Kylan wants more people involved in computer science, so proposed to engage FSF campers in coding lessons and activities. By using games and real-life examples, the campers learned the basic fundamentals of computer science, and even learned how they can make their own game.
