Will You Help Create a STEAM Explorers Park
at the Women’s League?

In 2023, the Women’s League Child Development Center opened a STEAM Learning Lab, among the first of its kind in the area for infants, toddlers, preschoolers. Extraordinarily generous donors made it possible! The Learning Lab has been a fantastic success, earning a STEM Achievement Award from the Connecticut Science Center.
Now, we invite you to partner with us in bringing another groundbreaking STEAM learning experience to life for Hartford’s youngest kids.
With your support, we can transform our grounds into a STEAM Explorers Park — an safe, fun, outdoor discovery area where our young learners can dive into science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM) through nature and play.
