More than 100 students at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Hartford took part in hands-on activities and collaborated with members of the Farmington-based Otis Elevator Co. executive leadership team Wednesday to build circuitry and robot kits that were then donated to the Club for continued learning. Otis also committed to an additional $50,000 donation to the Boys & Girls Clubs to support ongoing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) programming. “It is always a privilege to engage with students and spark an early interest in STEM – inspiring a lifelong love of learning by providing the tools to understand how they can dramatically impact the world around them,” said Otis Chair, President & CEO Judy Marks, who was among the Otis volunteers.
