Steph and Ayesha Curry are looking out for our girls!
The couple, through their foundation has launched a scholarship program for girls interested in STEM.

The scholarship was inspired by a 9-year-old girl named Riley Morrison. Morrison wrote a letter to Curry asking why his Under Armour sneaker collection wasn’t available for girls. Steph then collaborated with Morrison to design the Curry 6 United We Win shoe. The NBA star decided that the profits from the shoe would fund a scholarship.
We are thrilled to announce the inaugural foundation scholarship recipient, Vivian Wu. She is a senior at Oakland Tech where she boasts a 4.2 GPA and has completed 300+ hrs of community service as an advocate for marginalized communities, including survivors of domestic violence. pic.twitter.com/XE4F76a3x2

STEM stands for science, technology, education and math.
