Over 35 years of science fair programming and advocacy across BC and the Yukon has made Science Fair Foundation BC THE not-for-profit organization engrained in the public and private school systems for science education. While science fairs are the backbone of our organization we have grown our programming offerings to include:
Regional Science Fairs
Every year, thousands of students gather at their regional science fairs to share their ideas and passion for science with peers, judges and community leaders. It's at these science fairs, surrounded by other scientists and STEM enthusiasts, that students develop their curiosity for science and scientific discovery. While many fairs hand out over $10,000 in awards, prizes and scholarships every year, the biggest and most important accomplishment of each fair is encouraging a life-long love and appreciation for science.

These young innovators come face-to-face with industry and academic leaders to pitch their great new ideas and inventions, get feedback from experts in the field, and find out where a career in STEM can take them.
