The University of Kansas Chemistry Club (KU Chem Club) has over a century of history participating in outreach projects in the Lawrence area, and is known particularly for excellence in K-12 STEM outreach within the Lawrence community and beyond. Officers actively plan and conduct outreach events with new audiences that will lead to a larger awareness of the club’s objectives. During the past year, the KU Chem Club has successfully enhanced its impact on campus and in the broader community: the club has increased its reach in communication by strengthening its online presence; participated in more events with its charter organization, the American Chemical Society (ACS); and communicated with other ACS student chapters. The officers have made the club more attractive to prospective members to increase membership and participation, and therefore, increase community impact. Club members are committed to developing events that promote networking among students, and to forging collaborations with other organizations to promote the growth of all involved parties.
