Do they even do any philanthropic work? Scholarships? Even the
ARRL
and CAP have money for kids to go on to advanced education
with....What
does the IEEE offer kids...???


IEEE sponsors hundreds of college-level scholarships, grants,
internships, and
other educational awards totalling upwards of $1,000,000 per year.

High-school programs include the PEERS which provides resources at
the
high-school level to encourage students in the study of science,
math, and
technology.

With NSF and CCNY they sponsor "Stuff That Works", a set of academic
tools
(lesson plans/curriculum units) for elementary and middle school
teachers to use
to introduce the world of technology and engineering to their
students.

The list could go on for several pages.

While ARRL has an excellent track record in supporting youth and
education,
their efforts pale by comparison to the work being done by IEEE.

Gee...that's greeeeeat.

Wonder why none of that money seems to make it to one of the more
well known outreach programs?

Thanks for the info, Hans.
