Aha!
Welcome to MindFuel, a leader in developing youth innovation talent. Through our programs, we bring STEM innovation to life in K-12 and collegiate youth populations. Through blended learning, MindFuel develops an innovation mindset in youth by infusing students with a passion to identify real-world problems and a drive to find related solutions.
As a registered charity since 1990, we’ve invested over $100 million into Canada’s innovation ecosystem and we reach hundreds of thousands of Canadians each year through our in person and online programming. Our programs are developed by a dynamic team of teachers, artists, technologists and entrepreneurs, and focus on bringing ideas to life through design thinking and skills development workshops to seminars in entrepreneurialism and starting a business.
In a nutshell – we help youth create their AHA! moment by sparking their curiosity and fueling their inspiration to become the innovators of tomorrow.
Preparing Youth to Build and Thrive in Future Careers
There can be so many unknowns in our futures – whether career-related or just life in general. Adopting a innovation mindset and practicing key life skills can help lead youth to success.
