We’re honored to have gotten the chance to sit down with Photo Club Studio 678 Alumnus Chris Rush who has gone on to do great things for the Rochester community as Executive Director of Champion Academy, an organization that “helps urban teens in poverty overcome their traumatic experiences and use them as fuel to drive their improvement as students, citizens, and future professionals” (via https://www.championacademyroc.org).
Chris talked about how our youth programs empowered him, and how they continue to empower youth today by teaching the importance of teamwork, learning new skills, and the growing importance of technology and thinking creativity in the workforce.
