We are raising support for Tinkerboat, a creative STEAM and innovation space by Stichting Little Boat where refugee and local children and youth can learn, create, and grow together through science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics.

With your support, we aim to provide hands-on educational activities, creative workshops, and a safe community environment that encourages curiosity, confidence, inclusion, and connection beyond cultural and social boundaries.

Your contribution will help us transform ideas into opportunities for young people who need them most.

Many refugee and local families are searching for safe, meaningful, and creative activities for their children and young people. At the same time, many young people lack access to spaces where they can explore technology, science, creativity, and innovation in an inclusive and supportive environment.

Tinkerboat was created to respond to this need.

Through workshops and community activities, we want to bring together children and youth from different backgrounds to learn from each other, discover new skills, and build confidence through creativity and teamwork.

Our activities combine:

• STEAM education
• Robotics and simple electronics
• 3D pen and maker activities
• Science experiments
• Astronomy and discovery
• Creative arts and Ebru workshops
• Collaborative learning and social connection

We believe education and creativity can become powerful tools for inclusion, empowerment, and hope.

Tinkerboat is not only about technology or education.

It is about creating belonging.

It is about building bridges between refugee and local communities through shared experiences, creativity, and learning.

Our approach combines art, science, culture, innovation, and community-building in a welcoming environment where every child and young person feels valued and encouraged to participate.

Unlike projects that exist only as ideas, Stichting Little Boat has already organized multiple successful community activities, art workshops, science events, and integration-focused programs over the past years.

We are now taking the next step by expanding these activities into a sustainable and dedicated creative learning space.

Your donations will directly support:

• Educational workshop materials
• Robotics and STEAM equipment
• 3D pens and creative tools
• Science experiment kits
• Furniture and learning space improvements
• Volunteer-supported youth activities
• Community events and inclusive workshops

Every contribution, large or small, helps us create more opportunities for young people to explore, imagine, and develop their potential.

We dream of a future where children and youth from different backgrounds can learn side by side, discover their talents, and feel connected to their community.

Tinkerboat aims to become a safe and inspiring place where curiosity is encouraged, friendships are formed, and creativity becomes a bridge between people.

You can support Tinkerboat by:

• Donating to this campaign (LaunchGood)
• Sharing the fundraiser with your network
• Connecting us with educators, makers, and supporters
• Helping us spread awareness about inclusive education and youth empowerment

Together, we can build a space where innovation, creativity, and human connection come together to inspire the next generation.

Thank you for believing in this journey.
