 Thank-You Letter from Mayor of Toronto 

Arya Peruma, Coding for Young Minds has worked with the City of Toronto to donate free STEM kits to the Shelter Support & Housing Administration for their programming unit for the children. These STEM robotics kits provide young students with hands-on experience in robotics and coding right from the comfort of their own homes. This program has been able to benefit many students and has allowed those to gain hands-on experience- especially amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
