The Lehigh Valley Section was informed by ACS in mid-December 2020 that we have been awarded $2000 in funding for meaningful programming/activities that advance the ACS core value of diversity, inclusion and respect. According to program coordinator and ACS Career Consultant Greglynn Gibbs, we will be using this DI&R grant to enable our members to partner with the community to provide an interactive, virtual after-school chemistry extension program via Zoom. The “LVACS After-School Chemistry Partnership” program will be run as a series and take place one day/week over the course of three months (February-April 2021), allowing LVACS members/student members representing different facets of diversity to participate.
