Workshop Details:
This workshop welcomes ideas / visions, simple, unique or thought provoking to make a positive impact on the community & world around us. We invite everyone, young & old to bring forth their ideas & we'll brainstorm some of them.
Hope Avenue was an "idea" originating from a group of kids gathered at a play date!! They believed in it & acted upon the idea. We want to use this workshop as an opportunity to for us all to get together and discuss more such ideas. Please feel free to bring along your friends / children who have great ideas!!
November Updates
On Nov. 15th, we had a booth at HSNC during the Children's day celebration by Heritage. We had a great time making cards with the children who visited our booth. We had a good turn out in terms of new Youth volunteers!!
On Nov. 23rd, we had the Science Club / Geo-Bee workshop. We enjoyed enthusiastic participation of the 18 children who attended the workshop. We applaud Manu, Vishruth, Sanjay & Varun who presented their projects / ideas.

Thanks to our adult volunteers - Radhika, Ramesh, Sudhakar & Savitha Ram!
Science Club: We introduced the new Science club topics to the children that we will be working on for the upcoming year. We invite all children to present a project during our next Science Club workshop, individually or as a team.
The project should demonstrate the idea behind these questions. Only one topic needs to be picked by the team/individual for the January project. If the children get together as a team, we would like the team to be accompanied by an adult/High school mentor or coach to guide the team. Hope to have a great scientific time together!!
