Oluwademilade Odumuboni, proved that age is just a number when it comes to innovative thinking.

His winning creation at 10yrs old, a waste converter designed to assist African villages in food production and guaranteeing a clean environment, shows that the next generation of African innovators are ready to take on the world. With a cash prize of $5,000 and his school awarded $10,000, Odumuboni certainly brought glory to his school

But let's take a moment to appreciate the fact that he beat 782,852 contestants from 90 countries to clinch the grand prize. That's not just impressive, that's jaw-dropping. I mean, some of us can barely draw a stick figure, let alone come up with an innovative idea that could potentially change the world!

Toyota's Dream Car Art Contest has given young people all over the world an opportunity to showcase their creative talents and think outside the box.

Odumuboni's winning design is not only a nod to sustainability, but it's also a nod to the power of the imagination. Africa has a wealth of untapped potential waiting to be unleashed.

: The Champion Gabby Douglas made American history in 2012 by becoming the first U.S. gymnast to win gold in both solo and team. Also, becoming the first African American to win the Olympic all around title.

At the young age of 8, Gabby won the Level 4 all-around gymnastics title at the 2004 Virginia State Championships. At the age of 9, Gabby fell in love with gymnastics and wanted to take the sport serious and wanted to pursue the Olympic path. At age 14, she left her family in Virginia and moved in with a host family Iowa, where she started training with prominent coach Liang Chow. She soon began to attract attention at national competitions and was named to the senior national team and helped the United States earn the team gold at the 2011 world championships.

In 2016, She was also the 2016 AT&T American Cup all-around champion. Gabby competed at one more Olympics in 2016, earning repeat team gold, then decided after a difficult year that she was done with the sport, though she never announced a retirement. By 2022, she was motivated while watching gymnastics to return, in part to have a better ending than in 2016.

On April 28th of this year, Gabby will make her competitive gymnastics return at the upcoming American Classic. The American Classic would be her first competition in nearly eight years. "There’s so much to be said but for now….💪 😎 Let’s do this #2024." - Gabby Douglas
