Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
In 2020, Game Theory Academy reinvented its curriculum, in response to the pandemic, as an online course. We offered two-week summer classes, via Zoom, to 100 youth in our local Bay Area and across the country, paying stipends of approximately $10,000 to students who were locked out of summer jobs by shelter in place restrictions. In the fall GTA offered paid internships to three students to produce social media stories for our outreach efforts, and paved the way to offer further online programming in 2021.$29,830$32,336
