About Athena Racing: Athena Racing is an award-winning, STEM-education program, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, that provides free training for young girls in middle school and high school who are interested in discovering career paths in engineering, design, robotics, driving or business in the automotive, motorsport and transportation industries.   In April 2019, founder Loxley Brown began thinking of how she could turn a love of cars and racing into a team – a movement – a way of changing the status quo for young girls. The DRIVE change movement has been in full throttle ever since. Athena’s diverse team of board members and industry experts are paramount to the learning experience provided in this intensive online training program. They bring experience ranging from the racetrack to the board room to instill the necessary fundamentals for a strong, hands-on STEM curriculum.   Athena Racing is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization #84-2096687.
