After the Peanut
Inspired by George Washington Carver, After the Peanut was created in 2014 with our non-profit After the Peanut Foundation being added in 2017. Both organizations are solution driven, focusing on the power of knowledge and education in the face of adversity and challenge with equity at the core. We aim to transform communities by increasing equity in STEAM education.
