The Space Cookies | Sponsor Us

Being a Part of Space Cookies is a Life-Changing Experience

"Space Cookies helped Tatiana find her passion (in mechanical engineering)," Tatiana's mother

"Being a part of the Space Cookies has taught me so many things," Meghna says, "I don't think I am going to be an engineer. Politics and business are more in my line of interest. Yet, I joined the Space Cookies three years ago and plan to continue until the end of high school because I have learnt about so many things besides engineering."
