But (double underlined) 9% of Engin. + 20% of sci companies recruit, but... (problem starts earlier). On the other hand... elementary school => Unfortunately, in 5th/6th/7th, drift away (not cool, lose conf. ...)
My mission (underlined)now(/underlined) is to keep those girls in the pipeline
.Formed a company focused on supporting girls (5th-8th) interested in sci, math, computers. Do this by creating events, pgms, materials that girls will think are cool, come to or join or share with their friends [festivals, club, parent-daughter space camps]
=>Goal: make people look at things differently
See sci + eng as natural prof. for girls
React same to girl... as to a boy
(bold line made close to left margin)
+ girls to be eager to identify w/ interests in planets, oceans, genome, ecology
.1 example: Caltech (community science festivals...)
."2nd Annual" at Agnes Scott (ISS(I underlined only) AGL(A underlined only) Church's(C double underlined only)) Great response... adults want to join the club.... 
Lots of girls are int. in sci/math/tech... They need support, encour. mentors + role models. All of you can help (underline)inspire(/underlined) girls to dream or(underlined) give them (/underlined) the tools to pursue those dreams.
As a little girl.... Amazingly.... I know that thru your vision, creativity + dedication you can help 1000's of boys + girls achieve their dreams too + reach for the stars
