Entrepreneurial Training: We offer comprehensive entrepreneurial programs that teach students the fundamentals of starting and running a business. From ideation to execution, students learn how to identify opportunities, create business plans, understand financial literacy, and market their products or services. This training instills a sense of confidence and self-reliance, showing students that they have the power to take control of their economic futures.

Cutting-Edge Technology Skills: At Verticlas Makerspace, we believe that access to the latest technology is crucial for preparing youth for the future. Our programs introduce students to emerging technologies such as coding, robotics, 3D printing, and digital design. By engaging in these activities, students develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and creativity, which are all vital in the modern workforce. This early exposure helps them explore their interests and passions, ensuring they are not left behind in an increasingly digital world.

Empowerment and Inclusivity: One of the core values of Team Humanity is inclusivity. We ensure that our programs are accessible to all, regardless of socio-economic background. By providing these opportunities, we empower youth to dream big, pursue their interests, and break free from the limitations imposed by their environments. We aim to create a generation of leaders who are not just equipped with skills, but also with the mindset that they can achieve anything they set their minds to.

​

Athletes as Role Models: Athletes play a pivotal role in the Team Humanity mission. These individuals, who have excelled both on and off the field, serve as powerful role models for the youth in our programs. They share their stories of perseverance, discipline, and hard work, demonstrating that success is possible through dedication and effort. By actively participating in our programs, athletes inspire students to push beyond their boundaries and believe in their potential.

​

Community Building: Athletes also contribute by fostering a sense of community and teamwork within the Makerspace. They work alongside students, helping to create a supportive and motivating environment. This interaction not only boosts the students' confidence but also builds strong, positive relationships within the community. The presence of athletes who are committed to giving back underscores the importance of community involvement and collective effort in achieving success.

​

Inspiring the Next Generation: Through their involvement, athletes help to inspire the next generation to take an active role in shaping their own futures. They show that success is not just about individual achievement but also about making a positive impact on others. This aligns perfectly with the mission of Team Humanity, which is to uplift communities and inspire people from all walks of life to believe in their abilities to change the world.
