The Broadcom Foundation promotes the confident use of the full range of digital technologies, including some basic knowledge of coding and AI. These skills empower young people to be creative STEM problem solvers who can think critically, communicate, collaborate, and become experts in the digital world.

At the regional level, Broadcom Foundation sponsors Broadcom Coding with Commitment® at regional science and engineering fairs, in which a participating student can receive recognition for a project and a Raspberry Pi kit for a project in any category that combines STEM knowledge and coding in the project’s research, design, or development and which expresses a passion for helping or improving one’s community.

Broadcom Coding with Commitment® is intended to recognize achievements by students with limited access to STEM and coding resources.

“Our overreaching goal is for students in Arizona to see STEM everywhere. The new Broadcom Coding with Commitment® recognition rewards young people for being creators at a basic level and will honor students' passion to solve problems in their communities. That thinking is really beautiful.”
— Former CEO, Southern Arizona Science & Engineering Fair (SARSEF).

Experience AI

Broadcom Foundation is partnering with the Raspberry Pi Foundation to develop Experience AI protocols for the US and around the world and sponsors Experience AI and the AI Challenge at Penang Science Cluster (PSC) in Malaysia. Raspberry Pi Artificial Intelligence (AI) programs are designed and vetted to promote digital and AI literacy.

International Programs

Broadcom Foundation digital and AI literacy programs in Code Clubs, Coolest Projects Global, sponsored science fairs, and allied programs including the National STEM Festival and Congressional App Challenge provide Broadcom Inc. engineers and staff opportunities to volunteer as role models, mentors, and judges in communities where they live and work.

Sponsored Science Fairs Coolest Projects

At Broadcom Foundation-sponsored science fairs, Broadcom Coding with Commitment® encourages young people to use coding skills and AI to solve community problems they care about that align with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations.

Raspberry Pi Code Clubs

Learn More

Broadcom Foundation teams up with the Raspberry Pi Foundation to promote afterschool Code Clubs, where children in grades 5-8 have optimal project-based learning time to develop the basic coding and AI skills needed in the future workforce.

Congressional App Challenge

Broadcom Foundation sponsors the Congressional App Challenge where members of the U.S. House Representatives select a middle or high school student or student team to represent their district in the Nation’s Capital. The Foundation participates in #HOUSEOFCODE to inspire students to continue with coding and AI in a variety of platforms and uses for social good. There are no limits on application, themes, or topics!

Wiki Education Outreach Program

Learn More

Broadcom Foundation teams up with WikiEdu.org to educate college students on research and writing techniques with the precision needed to enter a biography in Wikipedia. Classes at colleges, including HBCUs, HSIs and Tribal Colleges research and write biographies about unsung STEM pioneers who belong in the Wikipedia site as role models “who look like me.”
