In January 2022, we started with a group of STEAM-learners in our joint program "Social Impact CLO Leadership program” by EDsnaps - STEAM Programs in NYC, The Girls Education Initiative of Ghana (GEIG), and iSpace Foundation.

This past Wednesday (5/18/22), 4 teams presented their showcases to our international judges panel. All teams showed their communication and problem-solving skills, characteristic we would like to see in leaders. Congrats to all students.

In Memoriam - Kenya Smith

February 6, 2022

This past week, Kenya Smith (22) died due to a hit-and-run.

Kenya was one of the 7 students who participated in our 2017 pilot Summer Program, which took place at the Bronx Engineering & Technology Academy (BETA) at the JFK campus in the Bronx, NY.  Kenya returned to our summer program as a judge and a role model for our 2018 STEAM learners.

Kenya once told me: “Dr. C, you smile with your eyes”. Kenya did not want to speak in public and did not want to be social but every time I put her up for another “social” challenge she took the challenge and came out stronger. She was a beautiful young woman and I am thankful that I got to know her.
