"I want to go to College", First time coders declare
After receiving the exciting news about winning the December Young Inventor Award, I visited the Silicon Valley Boys and Girls Club with balloons to congratulate Desteny and Ashley. Adam, the Director joined me in the celebration. The most rewarding moment for me was when both the girls declared that they want to go to college. They were clearly excited and inspired by the experience of learning to code and winning a competition. I am more motivated now to continue and expand this workshop to as many people as I can and get them excited about coding and STEM.
