SHPE STEM Familia Fest
Foundation Underwriting

Underwriting that welcomes every gift to build the Fest.

These are pure underwriting opportunities — no commercial benefits, only public recognition. Each fund is a shared bucket: gifts of any size from any number of foundations, family offices, and individual donors combine to power that area of programming. Every donor is listed alongside the fund they support.
