As part of our initiative to support STEM education, we created opportunities for employees to participate in company-sponsored events that advance that cause. Many DocuWare employees also volunteer on their own time as firefighters, animal shelter workers, and teachers. DocuWare encourages volunteerism and supports the nonprofits our employees dedicate their time to. We extend the reach of our philanthropic spirit through our global network of 600 DocuWare partners by supporting the nonprofits with whom they work.
The Academy is a private middle school for girls from minority or low-income communities in the City of Newburgh and the greater Hudson Valley area. Their goal is to break the cycle of poverty through education, while instilling a sense of self and a community-minded perspective in their students.
STEM education takes an integrated approach that focuses on hands-on learning. With that in mind, Maria Holden, Support Manager Americas at DocuWare, along with her team: Tatiana Weems, Aracelys Toribio and Shawn Rutigliano, created a workshop for the students to learn by doing.
The students were divided into four teams. Each team was assigned to work at a different fictitious company. The teams were made up of a web designer, a marketing manager and a purchasing agent.
“These 8th graders learned that everyone in an organization has a job to do, and it takes cooperation to achieve a common goal,” Holden explains. “I also wanted to inspire a curiosity about technology in these students. I’d like to see more girls pursuing careers in the computer science field.”
The teams also built cars made of recycled materials and prizes were given for the most creative recycled car. Before the solar car competition, team members assembled 75 solar car kits to be donated to the Newburgh Armory Unity Center (NAUC). DocuWare’s solar car kits will be used by children who are students of STEM programs at the Newburgh Armory Unity Center.
The center serves the residents of the City of Newburgh and the students of the Newburgh Enlarged City School District. Community members of all ages come together there for educational, athletic and civic opportunities.
Our philanthropic efforts for children are not just reserved for children. In the fall of 2019, we launched a certified tech training course in IT Fundamentals for adults at the Unity Center. Once they are certified, we help our graduates find jobs within our wide network of local business partners.
We’re looking ahead to 2020 with great optimism and anticipate another productive and successful year.
