🌱 About Us

---

Sprouting Minds Enrichment Club is more than an after-school program—we are a vibrant, student-centered community where curiosity takes root and young minds thrive. Our mission is to inspire and equip children in grades K–5 with hands-on experiences in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), aviation, social-emotional learning, and lifestyle skills. By blending academics with creativity, exploration, and play, we prepare students to succeed both in school and in life.

Sprouting Minds Enrichment Club is proudly powered by the Phoenix Love Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. This partnership allows us to extend our reach beyond tuition-based services and align with a greater mission: to empower children and families across our community.

Through Phoenix Love Foundation’s nonprofit support, donations and grants directly strengthen our programs—keeping tuition affordable, providing scholarships to families in need, and expanding enrichment opportunities for students who may not otherwise have access to quality STEAM and aviation education.

By choosing Sprouting Minds, you are not only investing in your child’s growth—you are also supporting a nonprofit movement dedicated to equity, innovation, and brighter futures for every child.
