No matter the circumstance… keep moving!

Has your child or team registered for the 2024 Innovative Fair that will be held across the United States from March to May 2024 to benefit Africa?

The aim of this fair is to inspire youth of African ancestry in grades 5-12 to come together and use their innovative ideas and talents to address some of the pressing issues faced by the African continent.

By providing a platform for young minds to showcase their projects and collaborate with experts, we hope to drive positive change and encourage the next generation of innovators to make a difference.

Join us by signing up for the Innovative Fair as we honor the spirit of Martin Luther King Jr. and work towards a brighter future for Africa.
