Description of Lake Washington, WA Branch
The purpose of our Lake Washington branch is to leverage our members’ knowledges in areas such as coding, arts, sports, gardening, and cooking to serve the broader community. Additionally, we aim to promote multiculturalism by actively participating in and contributing to local cultural events and groups.

We organize our activities through various projects tailored to specific interests. For instance, our current coding club project is designed to inspire students of all ages to explore coding and develop leadership skills through classes, camps, and competitions.

We regularly host free coding events, both in person and online, where kids can learn alongside peers who share their enthusiasm. As student volunteers, we take full responsibility for designing, advertising, and teaching at our events.
