About Us

Students Taking an Active Role in Society (STARS) is a Non-Profit organization whose purpose is to fund projects that will result in social changes to make the world a better place.

STARS evolved to where patenting ideas for improving the infrastructure of our day-to-day life was its main focus. In 1991, recognizing that inventions that will change the world required money, STARS achieved full 501(c)3 status as a Non-Profit, Tax-Exempt organization in order to actively fundraise.

Since then, STARS has continued to evolve to its present state whereby any worthwhile project that will enhance and/or improve society’s well being is considered for support. Today, the goal of STARS is to raise money to fund projects that correspond to the objectives of the organization.
