The grant will allow the Fab Lab to enhance its unique programs, fostering technical skills as well as creativity, critical thinking, and innovation among local youth. With access to cutting-edge equipment and a collaborative environment tailored for exploration and growth, the lab prepares the next generation of leaders and innovators for future careers and life.
