Although I faced an error in trying to request this badge, I still wanted to voice out my support for it. I am a colored woman from a minority group myself and have attained the status of a technical program manager at a top notch company in the US after a lot of struggle and on more than one occasion felt the lack of something to help me go on. I understand the stamina, grit and determination it takes for a black/colored person to gain acceptance in the world much less make a place for themselves. I wholeheartedly support this project that encourages, empowers and enables the youth to transform themselves! I wish this project great luck in the coming years.
