🌎💚 Happy Earth Day from YWCA Bethlehem!

Earth Day is not only today but every day. Students who attended the summer science series rolled up their sleeves and dove into hands-on earth science activities, from simulating oil spill cleanups to extracting DNA from fruit. Through these experiences, they explored environmental and life sciences while building critical thinking skills about our planet and the role we all play in protecting it.

By empowering young minds with knowledge and curiosity, we’re helping cultivate the leaders who will care for and sustain our Earth for generations to come. 🌱
