Chemours STEM Hub

Coming 2024!

Watch as our construction progress!

First Community Foundation (FCF) is thrilled to be constructing a community-facing, state-of-the-art, STEM HUB on its property in the Riverside area of NE Wilmington. The project is an estimated $26.3M project, including renovations to the Foundation’s existing facilities, the new facility will be named the Chemours STEM Hub in recognition of the magnanimous $4M grant that has been made to the Foundation by the Chemours Company.

The facility is scheduled to be complete in late 2024. Come back often to see construction progress.

During the day the students of Eastside Charter will utilize the facility to further their education in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. It will be a pivitol component to the school’s APEX honors program .

FOR OUR COMMUNITY

The STEM Hub will be a true resource to the community partnering with various organizations to help address educational, workforce development, and health monitoring needs in the community.
