Play & Developing Ubuntu

​

Ubuntu is a traditional Nguni Bantu (Southern Africa) philosophy which emphasizes our common humanity.  It’s primary tenet is our connectedness and interdependence as fellow human beings.

About Us

Make & Move Club is a non profit organization that believes that all youth should have access to STEM resources and be provided the opportunity to learn skills to help them be successful in the 21st century.  We feel that learning is enhanced by movement, play and fitness as an outlet of energy and as a part of the creative and critical thinking process. Our goals are to foster positive relationships with the youth in Vineland City and other economically disadvantaged areas of Cumberland County, provide exposure to science, technology, engineering and mathematics through robotics and other hands on activities, and to provide an environment that offers health & fitness services.
