YOUNG INVENTORS CLUB (YIC)

Young Inventors Club is a subsidiary of Gege Craft Bastion. It is a non-governmental organization whose mission is to reach out to teenagers and youths through crafts and skill empowerment. Gege Craft Bastion is passionately using science, art and craft to engage the youths as a means to keep them busy.

There is no doubt that now is the time to safe our children from impending doom of quest for quick wealth without corresponding hard work to ensure success which has led many youths into ritual killing, yahoo plus, kidnapping and all manner of evil vices.

YIC is a platform created for young boys and girls in secondary schools and undergraduate students to:
1. help them have clearer understanding of their vocational/science subjects,
2. engage them in practical scientific experimentations to make scientific studies concrete       and not abstractive subjects,
3. keep them busy with educative on - line activities- quizzes, exercises, new scientific               inventions and discoveries,
4. task them with periodic science/ project work for exhibitions.
5. engage young boys and girls artistically with graphics and general aesthetics.
6. train students on conventional art- weaving (basket, mat), calabash decoration, bamboo       decoration etc.

YIC is purely non-profit making, it's on a mission to save the African child from mediocrity, academic incompetence, atrophied inventive propensities and so on. Our mission is to help the African child live to his/her full potentials.
