We’re honored to receive the STEM Educator of the Year recognition from . 🏆

For those who may not know—GeekWire is a leading voice in technology and innovation, highlighting the people and ideas shaping the future.

To be recognized on that stage… it means something.

But this moment is bigger than an award.

It’s for every student who didn’t see themselves in STEM—
until they did.

At Project LEDO, we’re building more than robots.
We’re building belonging, confidence, and future leaders.

From a small group to reaching over 1,500 youth—this is what happens when access meets opportunity and community shows up.

This recognition belongs to our students, families, partners, and community.

We’re just getting started.
