Mary Kay recently awarded three grants to five standout high school scientists, selected from nearly 2,000 participants representing almost 70 countries. The grants were awarded at the Regeneron International Science & Engineering Fair (ISEF) in Los Angeles.
The grants, totaling nearly $10,000, were awarded to students with innovative projects focused on finding cures for cancers affecting women, sustainable packaging innovation, and protecting our planet’s most valuable resources.
“These future STEM leaders demonstrated innovative research, creative solutions, and novel approaches to complex problems that will directly impact cures for cancer, sustainable business practices, and redefine industry norms,” said Kristin Dasaro, Director, Package Engineering and Sustainability at Mary Kay. “We have so much to learn from this next generation and Mary Kay is honored to support them in their STEM journeys.”
