One of the common factors among today’s biggest American tech CEOs? Someone got them a computer when they were very young..

Create access to that kind of resources for all, look around, find a young person, provide them tools, let them rise above #createequality #changelives

If you are privileged in life and have had freedom, education, job security, access to healthcare... I hope you recognize how fortunate you are & do something to make the same things possible for others around you #noteveryoneisaslucky #equalityofresources #riseabovecircumstan

Extreme poverty takes human dignity away, don’t let yourself or anyone else go through it. #riseabovepoverty
