Your Donation was Impactful!

By Dr. Nadine S. James | Project Leader

Dear Donor,

IlluminXation is an affordable non-profit learning center, that operates remotely / hybrid through New York State. We illuminate the minds of the next generation of students through Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) lessons, and we steer them toward STEAM careers, particularly related to healthcare. Our fundamental purpose is to provide services for low income, high needs students within the community, especially those struggling in school.

IlluminXation Inc is a charity that helps students unlock their full potential, discover their GENIUS and excel in their studies. During the period from April 1st to September 30th, 2023, the organization raised $2,686 through fundraising on GlobalGiving. Please see the attached infographic for a synopsis of our activities and a report in pictures!

The funds were used for two projects, namely 'Help 500 USA Students Excel in STEAM' (Project 59215) and 'Help 500 African & Carib'n Students Excel in STEAM' (Project 59225).
As a result, 34 children from the USA, Caribbean, and Africa benefitted from enrichment activities and resources provided by the organization.
30 partial scholarships were awarded to students from low-income communities to boost their academic performance.
19 students also received data bundles for 24 weeks of online learning, which enhanced their learning experience.
The collected donations totaling $2,686 (from April 2023, little by little; August 2023, back black; and September 2023, little by little) were used to cover essential costs, including school supplies, art supplies, farming supplies, teaching materials, 5 tablets, personnel, travel, food, and administrative costs.

We have exciting things coming and we request you save the date and you support when contacted:

IlluminXation Gala “An Evening of Illumination” in November 2023 exact day to be announced.
