We would like to extend a HUGE thank you to all who mentored, volunteered, and contributed to our 2016 fundraising campaign which helped make all of our events possible throughout the year!
As we rely on donations of resources, food and financial means to operate each of our events – we are truly grateful to have such an incredible network of support and simply cannot express our appreciation for your time and contributions in all forms. Thanks to your time and donation, we were able to expand our program by offering a variety of new workshops and curriculum content this past year aimed at promoting digital literacy and STEAM education amongst youth. Some of our highlights from 2016 include:
- The introduction of our customizable CoderDojo curriculum kits
- Microsoft + CoderDojo teach Scratch Basics
- TPL Book Bash
- Full Stack Toronto Conference 2016
- STEMCA School of Robotics & Innovation Centre
- CareerMash
- MakerFestivalToronto
- #Ridi6ulo.us
Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to seeing you out at our events in the new year!
