SAN JOSE, Calif. - TelAve -- Boys & Girls Clubs of Silicon Valley (BGCSV) has received an additional $900,000 grant from ASML, a leading supplier to the semiconductor industry, to help fund STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) at its 32 clubhouses serving elementary students. BGCSV currently has 45 existing locations serving over 8,000 youth in Santa Clara County and has proudly partnered with ASML to leverage more than $2.5M since 2020 in support of youth development in Silicon Valley.

"We are profoundly grateful for ASML's extraordinary investment in our students," said Steve Wymer, President and CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Silicon Valley. "ASML's latest grant to BGCSV represents a tremendous addition to their longstanding commitment to underserved youth and their years of investment in our community. This partnership reflects what's possible when innovation and meaningful corporate responsibility align to create a more inclusive tomorrow."

A press conference was held on November 6 at the BGCSV Alviso Clubhouse. City of San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan, City of San Jose Councilmember David Cohen, and others spoke to commemorate the event.

Following the press event, ASML executives, BGCSV leadership, and elementary-aged club members hosted a robotics race of toy devices they built and coded themselves alongside ASML volunteers, demonstrating a shared commitment to inspiring curiosity and discovery in young learners.

"ASML's continued investment in the success of students in our community is a reflection of the commitment to community our employees seek to reflect in every market we serve," said ASML Community Engagement Program Manager Verona Nunez. "This new investment builds on the success of a $1.4 million grant awarded to BGCSV in November 2023, which expanded technology access and STEM programming for middle and high school youth and supported summer and teen programs. Advancing STEM equity and nurturing the next generation of innovators in Silicon Valley is vitally important to ASML and we are grateful for the opportunity to live out our company values in this meaningful way."
