Reinvnted's Quarter 1 Update (2021)

By Nandini Goyal, Palak Mehta | Project Leads

Hi!

Reinvented Magazine has been keeping busy for the first quarter with our fundraisers and virtual events.

In honor of International Women’s Day, Reinvented hosted a Little by Little Campaign to raise $1000. We surpassed our goal and ended with $3,140, $140 of which came from GlobalGiving donors! We also hosted a Visual Arts & Writing competition titled "March Museum", and held a Jeopardy Game Night themed for the celebration. For the March Museum, participants from 8th-12th grade were encouraged to combine their artistic interest with broad themes of Women in STEM as they submitted pieces in Art, Writing, and Video Editing categories. In the game night, players answered questions about Women's History themed across the fields of STEM, Art, Literature, Music, and Politics. Throughout this month, Reinvented tried to encourage a fusion of STEM and other fields, and based on the submissions we received, we were successful in doing so!

In addition, Reinvented launched limited edition t-shirts through the platform Bonfire, and it was a huge success. Within the first few days we raised close to $1,000, and at the conclusion of the fundraiser, we raised about $64 above from our $2,000 goal, so we really appreciate the support! We also released a new Women in STEM sticker pack on our website. To purchase our sticker pack, check out this link: https://www.reinventedmagazine.com/shop.

Reinvented has been continuing the STEAM Dreamers series, hosting virtual STEAM career panels on the last Saturday of every month. As an overview, Reinvented’s STEAM Dreamers brings real women in STEAM role models into homes, classrooms and nonprofit programs. Our goal is to make it easy for professionals to share their skills and expertise bringing real-world, authentic information to students to create the next generation of innovators. Reinvented is also hosting bi-weekly workshops as part of Invent with Reinvented, which connects students with passionate individuals for thirty to sixty minutes of high impact, STEAM knowledge, targeted towards high school and early college-aged girls.

As we move forward into our second quarter, Reinvented just wanted to say thank you for all your support this far and hope you continue engaging with our content and events in the future!

Best,

The Reinvented Team

Reinvented Fall Fundraiser Report

By Nandini Goyal, Erin Mitchell | Project Leads

This winter, Reinvented is grateful for you. We celebrated our first birthday on May 20th, 2020. Since then, we've published our fourth, fifth, and sixth issues, featuring women like Alyssa Carson: Martian in Training, Svetlana Quindt from Kamui Cosplay, and Dr. Carlotta Berry from the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology and highlighted real-world topics like bioengineering, wearable technology, and STEM inclusion. We wanted to show you the impact your support has made in 2020, not just for Reinvented, but across the globe.

We now have over 100 volunteers working hard every day to find fun new ways to inspire our young readers. We are reaching all 50 states (our final state was Wyoming, which we reached in September 2020!) and over 25 countries with our content. We are fulfilling our goal to be accessible to every reader, everywhere. Our One-for-One Program has continued to thrive. In 2020, over 1,500 magazines went to girls in low income and underserved areas, even during the COVID-19 pandemic. Just to name a few, one set of donated magazines went home in summer reading bags in Minnesota, some went to students in Alaska, and even more, went to girls who weren't able to participate in in-person summer camps in California.

From November 9th, 2020 to January 4th, 2021, we hosted our annual Fall Fundraiser. As part of the GlobalGiving Fundraiser, Reinvented Magazine is donating copies of Issue 5 of Reinvented Magazine to a girl interested in STEM. The total amount raised through GlobalGiving for the Fall Fundraiser was over $2000. As a result, 497 copies of Issue 5 will be donated to girls across the country. The money donated by awesome supporters like you will also be used to cover printing costs of our upcoming magazine issues so we can continue inspiring girls to pursue STEM worldwide.

As Reinvented continues to grow, we would love your support! We have a packed first quarter: our virtual STEAM Dreamers, Byte-Sized, and Invent with Reinvented panels and workshops; Issue 7’s release where we are highlighting the next generation of STEM changemakers; and our Black History Month event in February and Women’s History Month event in March. We are always looking for more volunteers across all facets of the team: writers, artists, event planners, finance team members, and more! More information about all of these opportunities can be found at www.reinventedmagazine.com

Again, we can’t thank you enough for your support.

To infinity and beyond,

The Reinvented Team
