StormAcademy celebrates the power in girls and women in the Puget Sound region through dynamic leadership programs that inspire, speaking engagements that motivate, and academic platforms that educate. These girl-focused leadership and career sessions allow girls to build community, explore STEM and careers and learn new skills.

Delta Dental + Family First Community Center

In November 2024, we partnered with Delta Dental of Washington for a Storm Academy session at Family First Community Center in Renton. Local youth learned about careers in dentistry and participated in hands-on activities with composites and sealants.

This event was supported by Delta Dental's Dental Career Discovery: A Hands-On Journey program.

Providence Swedish + Rainier Scholars

In February 2024 we partnered with Providence Swedish for a Storm Academy event with Rainier Scholars, a program that offers a pathway to college graduation for low-income students of color. Youth from the Puget Sound-area program participated in sports med activities, learn about roles in health care, and talk about mental health with Jordan Horston at our Storm Academy event.

We also supported Rainier Scholars with a $30,000 donation to continue their work offering a gateway to opportunity for underrepresented students of color.

Delta Dental + YMCA Kent

We hosted a group of youth from YMCA Kent to attend a StormAcademy session focused on the importance of oral health. They got to work hands-on with dental instruments and hear from professionals about dental career pathways.
