Be part of an exciting new initiative that transforms local STEM professionals into collectible STEM heroes for the next generation! 

We invite you to design and print custom trading card binders that will house an unprecedented collection of STEM mentor trading cards, featuring inspiring professionals from across our region.

How to Participate: 

  • Create binders, of your choice sizing, to hold sleeves for our students to store their NEOSTEM Mentor trading cards – binders must have rings to clip plastic sleeves into

When designing covers for binders, please ensure they fit within the following size options:

  • Standard Size: 8.5 x 11 inches
  • Compact Size: 5.5 x 8 inches 

Design the binder covers with your spin on STEM inspiration feel free to:

  • Add your organization’s branding to be part of this innovative mentorship initiative
  • Add links to STEM activities or resources 
  • Add graphics that showcase your STEM work
  • Include the NEOSTEM, STEM Playbook and Cleveland Cavaliers logo in a visible location on at least one side of the binder. (find logos to use here).

These binders will be distributed alongside the trading cards at upcoming events including Score With STEM with the Cleveland Cavaliers and STEM Day with the Cleveland Guardians, helping to showcase Northeast Ohio’s commitment to developing our future STEM workforce.

Making an Impact

These aren’t just ordinary trading cards – they’re gateways to STEM careers that will be distributed at major events like Score with STEM with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and STEM Day with Cleveland Guardians. Each card captures the personal STEM journey of a local professional, complete with their origin story, career advice, and insights accessible via QR code.

By providing trading card binders, you’re giving students more than just a storage solution – you’re helping them build their own personal library of STEM inspiration. Just as sports card collectors cherish their prized collections, these binders will help students treasure their connections to STEM mentors and envision their own future in STEM fields.

Let’s work together to make STEM mentorship collectible, memorable, and inspiring for the next generation of innovators in Northeast Ohio!
