#MountainFire: Firefighters have been told to do whatever they need to save lives, there is no saving any property. Numerous reports of people trapped.
We are excited to announce that kidSTREAM has received a transformative $2M donation from @Amgen and the Amgen Foundation!
This is a powerful testament to the importance of our mission and the bright future ahead for our community's children…🧵1/4
As a mother and grandmother, I know all too well the importance of creating positive learning environments for children that are not only accessible and support children's growth and development but are also engaging and fun.
I recently had the opportunity to visit the future site of @kidSTREAM805 in Camarillo, where creativity and a sense of wonder will be nurtured for children across our region.
Our team recently welcomed @RepBrownley to the future home of kidSTREAM Children's Museum to learn more about the history of the project and our plans for construction as the we prepare to scale our impact on the community. 🧵1/5
@Metrolink please give a high five to the crew on the route that goes to LA and passes through the Camarillo station at 7:20AM. For the past few years, I've stopped by with my girls on their way to school to see the train and wave and they always get such friendly waves back!
Meet @bryanyee, kidSTREAM's Board President! As a father to 3 girls and someone whose day job at @Amgen is focused on helping others learn, Bryan is proud to be working with us to build a children's museum that will inspire and empower children to explore, play, and discover...🧵

It might not look like much to an adult, but they built it, and I can still remember all of the stories they told for days about what imaginary thing it was, how tall it was, and what worked vs. didn’t work as they were building. 🧵1/3
The Bright Day Big Blocks are just one example of the exhibits we’ll have at @kidSTREAM805 that encourage open ended play and exploration! Right now, we’re asking the community to join us in raising $30K before the end of the day on #GivingTuesday to build this exhibit!

Had a blast doing experiments with the kids over the weekend. Love how their confidence and excitement in explaining what they’re learning continues to grow! Follow @kidSTREAM805 to learn more about how we are building a children’s museum in #venturacounty to inspire kids!
One of our young scientists shows how to safely watch the #solareclipse using items you can find around the house! Creating opportunities and an environment where kids can be curious, explore, and learn is one of the many things that our team is excited about!
@DanWuori One of my proudest dad moments, and one of the rare times I was glad that there is always a steady stream of Amazon boxes coming to our doorstep to be repurposed into costumes you can’t buy.
Honored to be considered among the list of honorees in this year’s 40 Under 40 by the @pacbiztimes! Inspired by the impact this year’s cohort is having on our region!
