Bringing CSR to Life through Community Events | TWC

As a brisk wind blew in through the entrance of Science City at Union Station Kansas City, the promenade doors kept opening and closing. The sensation of cold Missouri air rushing in was a steady reminder that lots had to get done that morning. Boxes were being hauled in at breakneck speeds as Time Warner Cable volunteers and Science City staff joined to together to unload the multiple trucks which arrived for the day?s activities. The date: September 20, 2014 and this was the beginning of the first-ever Time Warner Cable Girls STEM Expo at Science City.
The concept for TWC Girls STEM Expo was simple ? find a way to showcase all of the wonderful STEM learning opportunities in Kansas City in a fun and interactive way for kids. Time Warner Cable, through its Connect A Million Minds (CAMM) initiative, had built strategic partnerships with multiple local STEM non-profits all of whom would play a part in the event. The nonprofit exhibitors, who were showcasing their programs for children, were CAMM grant recipients. And, while admission to the museum was free to the public courtesy of Time Warner Cable, the Girl Scouts of Missouri ? another CAMM partner ? had received a special invite to come and see what we had planned, privately.
