Educators are innovators.
A group of friends, shaped by volunteering at local clubs, dreamed of doing more. They believed every child deserved access to STEM—science, technology, engineering, and math—and saw how mentorship could transform lives.
Over dinner, they decided to start a nonprofit—All-Star Imagination—to give kids hands-on experience with tools and projects. They believed this could spark a lifelong passion for learning and innovation.
Reaching out to schools and community centers across Bloomington, they built a program that empowers children from low-income households. Through mentorship and real-world projects, they inspire the next generation of engineers and innovators.
Today, their dream is a reality. What started as a simple idea over a meal has grown into a thriving organization, changing lives one STEM project at a time.
Our StorySince 2022, All-Star Imagination has hosted 10+ engaging STEAM events, bringing hands-on learning experiences to over 150 underserved students in our community. Each event reaches an average of 15 young minds, sparking curiosity and building skills in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics.
Our Vision: Empowering the Next Generation of Global Innovators.
We envision a world where every child, regardless of geographic location or socioeconomic background, has access to transformative STEAM education. By exposing youth to Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics through hands-on experiences, interactive workshops, and engaging projects, we nurture critical thinkers and lifelong learners equipped to tackle tomorrow's challenges.
From Bloomington to the World:
