In the UK, Cisco are a partner for the Blooodhound project - which plans to exceed 1000Mph in a combined rocket and jet powered car!

A big part of that project is around educating kids - boys AND girls about STEM and to consider STEM careers.

As an ambassador for the project, I'm continually amazed by the persistence old-school stereotyping of what STEM subjects and careers are all about.

The project is constantly on the lookout for more amabassors - apply if you want to help make a difference :-)
