Spotlights
“I was inspired by the assistance and empowerment organizations like GerHub for families. It sets very well with me knowing that the ger community has the level of support they have now! I am excited to follow along the journey of impact and see all you accomplish in the future!”

“My teaching was hosted officially by GerHub, a nonprofit
co-founded by my host some years ago. The organization has little connection to data science, but Badruun was enthusiastic about the benefits of my visit and mobilized GerHub staff and summer interns to organize it - they did a terrific job.”
