I received this from Ken Gracey at Parallax today. This is what can be done by supporting Parallax and their work. You can help the Future Innovators Fund by clicking here.
"The first six minutes: (see below)
In the P2 community most participants are over 40 (or 60!) and male. There are two women who have been participating and a few blind folks, but none of the participants are young, except for Kevin. Kevin seems to be at every P2 Live Forum and is building whatever circuits are being shown, with Parallax hardware. The community has been sending him support via Parallax.
Nobody knows where and how he got started. His parents are typical parents with typical jobs. When he was seven years old he designed a circuit board and ordered it from China with his dad’s credit card. That started this march forward with electronics, 3D printing, etc.
When we have our P2 Expo, you can count on him having a table to show his projects and making a few presentations, too.
Ken Gracey, CEO"
