Scientific Adventures for Girls (SAFG) is a nonprofit organization based in Berkeley, California. It delivers year-round afterschool STEM education programs for girls in the TK-6th grade range in the San Francisco East Bay Area. The programs focus on science, technology, engineering, and math through engaging activities designed to broaden access to hands-on learning beyond the regular school day and to support underrepresented participation in STEM. SAFG has collaborated with partner organizations to extend its reach, including initiatives to coordinate STEM activity kits for students from underserved communities. A notable 2024 development was the appointment of Courtenay Carr Heuer as executive director and co-founder, and her subsequent induction into the Alameda County Women's Hall of Fame in the Science-Tech-Engineering category. The organization positions itself within the non-profit sector as a focused provider of girls' STEM education in the Bay Area.
