My name is Nadav Gilboa, I'm 12 years old, and I am organizing a TEDx Youth Event. I have worked for two months just to get the application all the way through, and I finally finished. I've secured a location - Repair the World in Homewood. I've chosen a theme: Create Your World.
Now one of the only things I have left to do is find funding, I'm hoping your organization will be part of my solution. I have a dream to let kids with great ideas share them with people who want to hear what they have to say. Not only do I plan to have at least half of my speakers be children, but I will invite child entrepreneurs from around Pittsburgh showcase their products and/or services. That part is very important to me because I know that in years past I have had so many ideas of things I could do or sell, and I want to encourage others to follow their ideas like I am. I want the world to understand that kids have good ideas that can also revolutionize the world for the better. I want everyone to know kids can help, and I all I want to know is... Would you please help, too?
