At Empact Strides, creativity unfolds in unexpected, powerful ways.
Every Saturday, something remarkable happens in our Curiosity Club—young minds come alive.
But here’s the twist: we don’t start by teaching. We start by listening.
Each week, teens from under-resourced communities gather—not to sit through lectures—but to lead with questions:
🧠 “Why do planes fly?”
🌍 “Can we solve pollution in our neighborhood?”
💡 “How does Wi-Fi work?”
These aren’t just random thoughts. They are sparks—tiny openings into a world of discovery. And instead of handing them answers, we co-create pathways to explore together.
In the Curiosity Club, learning is driven by wonder, not worksheets.
We build every session around what they’re curious about—encouraging critical thinking, hands-on problem-solving, and collaborative experimentation. Whether they’re reverse-engineering a KFC recipe or designing fire safety campaigns, each activity connects personal interests with real-world impact.
Our mission is simple but urgent:
To level the playing field for youth in marginalized communities, giving them a safe space to explore, dream, and build.
Because every changemaker starts with a question.
And curiosity? It’s not just the first step to knowledge. It’s the first step to transformation.
