Challenge

LongviewWOW is a dedicated all-volunteer non-profit organization making an impact on our East Texas community through children's educational programming. Currently, there is a shortfall of science programming geared towards youth of all ages in our community.

Solution

LongviewWOW hopes to inspire a life-long love of learning by giving children the opportunity to create and explore in a hands-on educational environment. Through Out of This World, LongviewWOW can further its mission. By offering this science and technology program, children will have first hand knowledge of scientific principles, space exploration, flight, forensics, and more.

Long-Term Impact

Currently, LongviewWOW is operating our Without Walls initiative as we raise funds to build and support our children's discovery facility. With the continued support of the community, LongviewWOW's first Brick and Mortar Capital Campaign will kick-off next year to make this facility become a reality.
