FORT GORDON, Ga. – The Armed Forces Families Foundation donated $20,965.25 to help fund updates to the science technology engineering and math lab at Freedom Park School at Fort Gordon in Georgia in July, 2017.

The STEAM lab improvements included providing furniture and equipment to help support the lab, which allows students to participate in cardboard construction, prototyping, robotics, digital fabrications, textiles and other projects.
