GENESIS AND GENESIS INSPIRATION FOUNDATION ADVANCE STEAM EDUCATION IN SEATTLE

• Genesis hosts Child Creativity Lab STEAM workshop at Boys & Girls Clubs of King County
• Genesis Inspiration Foundation awards $10,000 grant to AIM Seattle to expand arts education for children with disabilities

SEATTLE, Aug. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Genesis and Genesis Inspiration Foundation recently supported science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) education and youth development in the Seattle community. Through Genesis Gives, the corporate social responsibility initiative of Genesis Motor America, Genesis hosted an interactive STEAM workshop for students at the Boys & Girls Clubs of King County, introducing students to transportation technology careers and hands-on STEAM learning opportunities. Additionally, Genesis Inspiration Foundation awarded a $10,000 grant to AIM Seattle to help expand inclusive arts education programs for children with disabilities in the Seattle area.

"Exposure to the arts and access to applied STEAM learning can open doors that students may not have known existed," said Brandon Ramirez, director, corporate social responsibility, Genesis Motor America, and board member, Genesis Inspiration Foundation. "By supporting programs like these, we are helping young people develop STEAM-related skills, explore transportation technology careers, and gain access to inclusive arts experiences."

Genesis hosted a STEAM workshop, developed with Child Creativity Lab, for nearly 50 students at the Boys & Girls Club of King County. Students learned about emerging transportation technologies at Genesis and the product planning process, explored an all-electric Genesis GV60 and applied their creativity to develop future mobility concepts using upcycled materials. During this year alone, Genesis has impacted nearly 1,500 children through its STEAM workshop in schools and community organizations throughout the nation. This initiative is part of Genesis Gives, which seeks to empower the next generation of leaders and innovators through supporting STEAM education, youth sports, and sustainability programs.

Genesis Inspiration Foundation donated $10,000 to AIM Seattle, a nonprofit organization that provides adaptive and inclusive arts programming for children with disabilities. Through classes, camps, and community-based experiences, AIM Seattle fosters creativity, connection, and personal growth while helping participants overcome barriers to access. The donation will be used to support inclusive arts programming that empowers children with disabilities to explore their creativity and engage in enriching artistic experiences.

"This funding means we can keep doing what AIM does best: creating spaces where disabled kids, teens, and young adults can show up as themselves, try new things, build skills, and find their people," said Kristin Nygaard, program director, AIM Seattle. "As AIM continues to grow, the need that we see in our community continues to grow as well. This $10,000 will help us keep our programs accessible while continuing to grow the opportunities we can offer. We're really grateful for this support and for the Foundation's belief in what we're building together."

Together, these initiatives help increase access to interactive STEAM learning and inclusive arts education for youth across the greater Seattle area.
