Youth get Wired

to encourage technology interest among low-income middle school-aged
children.
The expo showcased the work of inner-city
youth who have mastered various software packages including
Adobe Photoshop, or have created Web sites using applications
such as Dreamweaver.
The WiredWoods program was founded by Paul
Deninger, the chairman and chief executive officer of Broadview
Holdings. For more information, visit www.wiredwoods.org.
