We Are GenomiGo!

We're channeling innovative technologies to make mentorship and wellness education more accessible and engaging for students everywhere!

GenomiGo is dedicated to leveraging digital technology to enhance mentorship opportunities and wellness education for students, with a strong focus on fostering engagement and accessibility. We strongly believe these opportunities should be accessible to all individuals, regardless of their background or circumstances. Collaborating with experts and educators from diverse fields, we center our work around 3 main programs for underserved high school students, each advancing aspects of our mission.

Our Project Catalyst program engages in development of digital platforms that facilitate mentorship and career exploration. These platforms aim to connect students with mentors while offering interactive experiences that enable audiences to explore their career interests in an engaging manner. By incorporating highly personalized features, we strive to improve accessibility for all students.

Additionally, our Thrive Studio program focuses on producing high-quality educational videos that promote education on important wellness topics in ways that are relatable to youth audiences, in our effort to promote healthy lifestyles.

Furthermore, our ATGC Squad program embodies our commitment to mentorship through direct community involvement. We actively engage with students through hands-on activities such as workshops. We also foster co-creation initiatives, inviting students to actively participate in the development of our other two projects. Through this inclusive approach, we aim to cultivate a supportive and vibrant community where knowledge is shared, bonds are formed, and exploration is encouraged.

Overall, our mission is to inspire curiosity, promote accessibility, and empower high school students through mentorship and wellness education. We strive to create a future where all students have access to the opportunity to drive their future and lead balanced lives.

What We Are About

Engagement

We aim to cultivate an educational approach that channels our values of innovation, interaction, and fun! We aspire to make mentorship and wellness education a process that is both informative and engaging.

Accessibility

We believe in leveraging technological platforms to develop digital resources that are freely available to everyone, so that opportunities for personal growth don't have to be limited by socioeconomic factors or geographic location.

Community-Centric Mentorship and Education

We want to catalyze the creation of mentorship resources that encourage students to drive their own futures while being lifelong learners. At the same time, we want to empower the youth community by helping them understand the factors that drive their well-being. To accomplish this, we highly value community input and strive to involve the community in our projects as much as possible, so that we can work together towards creating exciting new tools and programs that promote our mission of promoting curiosity and well-balanced lives.
