Our Mission
Talented & Educated
We are committed to helping gifted kids forge ahead with their gifts while still pursuing their education. We believe that talent and education should be developed together.
Many kids neglect their inherent talent while pursuing their education. On the other hand, most talented kids don't get the chance or means to pursue their education. What we do is help them develop their talents into skills and still help them pursue their education.
Our target is mostly disadvantaged kids and our hearts and hands are committed to this mission.
