Take a look at everything our brilliant Ubuntu Center members did🤯! There was no shortage of learning and creating this month, as our youth let their imaginations run wild during our Dungeons and Dragons workshop, learned the foundations of coding using Scratch, and created their own models using our state of the art 3D printer👏🏿. We are incredibly impressed with everything they created!✨ You can become a member of our Ubuntu Center for FREE today here: https://lnkd.in/gfc36Muj #ubuntucenter #TheHiddenGeniusProject #Blacknonprofit #STEAMEducation #3DPrinting

💫If you follow Kevin Simpson’s words of encouragement for future Geniuses, you’ll “try things out at least once and give it a shot.” And if you follow his actions, you’ll try and try again. When he first applied to The Hidden Genius Project, he didn’t make it past the interview stage. That was back in 2018. The following year, during his freshman year at Impact Academy in Hayward, he tried and tried again and was accepted to the OAK7 cohort🎊. Now a second year at Chabot College, Kevin is majoring in Graphic Design✏️, and has remained connected over the years with The Hidden Genius Project—first as an Alumni Engagement Intern, and now working full time as an Ubuntu Center Coordinator.
