A magical digital world with Rise: completing courses and looking forward!

In our Rise HUB, kids don’t just learn, they immerse themselves in a real fairy tale of knowledge, technology, and creativity!
And although we are completing several courses, this is only the beginning of great achievements in the future. So let’s recall how it all went down together.

Digital illustration: when a tablet becomes a magic brush 🖌

What can be created from simple shapes, colors, and imagination? Our young artists know the answer! During the digital illustration course, the kids learned to draw various characters, mix colors, experiment with techniques, and even create their own little masterpieces.

And do you know what? The brightest ideas came to life in their works: from cute animals to fantastic space landscapes.

Cybersecurity and cyberbullying: how to protect yourself in the online world 🛡

The Internet is not only an endless source of information, but also a place where you need to be careful. We taught the children how to protect their data, avoid dangers, and deal with cyberbullying.

They also learned how to be attentive to the content they consume and how to behave online to feel safe. This course was the first step for many of them to consciously and responsibly use the Internet.

Photo and video editing: stories that come to life 🎥

This course is real magic for creative teenagers. We taught them how to take photos and videos, adjust colors, edit clips, and adapt content for social media.

And at the final, each participant presented their own project – and it was fantastic! We saw videos that could easily make it to the top of TikTok or become part of a professional Instagram campaign.

Field trips to the Tomakivska community: knowledge for everyone 🚐

We didn’t stop with the classes at the HUB. Our team went to the Tomakivska community so that the children there could also plunge into the world of digital.

Each visit was filled with an atmosphere of joy and discovery. The children enthusiastically mastered new knowledge that we are sure will stay with them forever.

Completion of these courses is not the end, but just another step on the way to new ideas and opportunities. We are glad that we were able to give the children a piece of a digital fairy tale, and there are even more interesting things ahead.

Together with our partners, we continue to create a safe space for learning, development, and dreams, even in the most difficult times.

Let’s create the future together with Rise! 💙💛
