2. “We here at Dr Pepper Snapple Group have put pride in our philanthropy work throughout both our local community and the nation. DISD is often overlooked and at an educational disadvantage. We feel that it is important to invest in the younger generation and change the lives of our youth through the Business Gives Back program. The purpose of this Science Fair is not only to increase awareness and exposure towards science-based learning, but to allow University STEM students to assist less fortunate scholars at local Dallas middle schools.” -Dr. Pepper Snapple Group Inc.
