Curiosity, Code, and Community: Nehemiah Community Empowerment Center Brings STEM to the Hope Hub
There’s a new buzz at the Hope Hub this summer—and it sounds a lot like the whir of drones, the click of LEGO builds, and the curious questions of kids deep in discovery.
We’re proud to welcome Nehemiah Community Empowerment Center as the newest official partner at the Hope Hub. Over the past few months, they’ve already made a big impression—quietly transforming one of our rooms into a fully equipped computer lab designed to expand access to STEM learning for youth and families in our community.
Now, they’re launching their Summer STEM Club, a program for kids ages 6 to 11 that kicks off July 1. Every Tuesday and Thursday morning from 10:00–11:30 AM, young participants will explore drones, robotics, LEGO engineering, cybersecurity, animation, and immersive VR. It’s a hands-on, high-energy experience built to spark curiosity and open doors to future careers in science and technology.
Nehemiah is creating the kind of access that can change the course of a young person’s future. This partnership brings learning to life in ways that are bold, engaging, and full of possibility.
The program runs July 1 through August 7 and requires a one-time $50 fee to join. Space is limited.
Nehemiah Community Empowerment Center is the first WozEd STEM Career Pathway Community Center in Guilford County. Their mission is to create exposure, career awareness, and opportunity—especially in neighborhoods where STEM programs are often hard to come by. Their partnership strengthens the Hope Hub’s vision: to be a space where wellness, education, and possibility meet under one roof.
This summer, that vision includes buzzing drones and wide-eyed kids discovering what they’re capable of—and we’re here for it.
