Favorite Subject & Why

Math and Science. From a very early age he dreamed of being able to touch the moon, understanding other realms and realities, also the depth behind space and infinite ! He has always understood math on an infinite level. He wants to create a world where learning and gaming collide as well as, being safe to do so.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

I would be able to enroll him in the best homeschool curriculum, for Math and Science of gifted children, and we could purchase the telescope and computers he needs to start developing and coding now. As a single mom, its not fair to him that I struggle and am not able to afford the tools he needs to grow. Just this week he explained to me that a cup with air in it, would still be overflowing, why I asked, he told me that im silly, because air takes yp space.hehe! He is the most deserving.
