PURPOSE
The purpose of Caterpillar's Promise, Inc. is to motivate others, especially the youth, to use their talents in Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics for the greater good through its service, seminars, and showcases.
ORIGINATION
The organization is based on the foundation of fulfilling purpose through development. Therefore, the metamorphosis of a butterfly was adapted to represent the organization in 2015, which was originally initiated under the name All Around Actions in 2011 in Macon, GA while the founder was in high school. Initially, seven goals for the greater good were formed as the All Around Actions Initiatives.
INCORPORATION
The organization officially became an official non-profit corporation of the State of Georgia on October 27th, 2016, and an official leadership board was formed. In 2017, E-STEAM Programming officially launched from proceeds raised from musical productions written, produced, and debuted by the founder. It became a tax-exempt organization in 2018 and established its first collegiate student chapter on Georgia Tech’s campus.
Since then, the heartbeat of the organization is centered around five E’s: To encourage, enlighten, excite, educate, and elevate.
