+    <h2>What is Morgan Stanley Makerspace</h2>
+    <p>
+    An employee designed and run program bringing one-off STEM-based
+    interactive workshops to children and teens.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Our most common workshop marries Python programming and hardware
+    with the Adafruit Circuit Playground Express (CPX), a beginner
+    friendly microcontroller that provides fast feedback necessary for
+    new programmers.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    We launched our Morgan Stanley Makerspace program with the hope that
+    it would - in the long-term - drive greater digital literacy amongst
+    the young people we'd engage. For as long as the digital industry
+    has thrived in the United States, there has been a gap between those
+    who have access to technology and those who do not. This digital
+    divide is not just access to reliable and affordable internet
+    service, but equitable access to fundamental technology education
+    required to ensure digital literacy and economic opportunity in our
+    ever evolving and increasingly virtual world.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Since the program's launch in 2018, 500+ children and teens have
+    participated dozens of different workshops; 50% of participants
+    resided in a NYC shelter at the time of participation.
+    </p>
+    <h3>Mission</h3>
+    <blockquote>
+    <p>
+        Our DNA, our culture and our history are rooted in serving our
+        clients.
+    </p>
+    <cite>James Gorman</cite>
+    </blockquote>
+    <p>
+    The Morgan Stanley Makerspace works towards two of the Firm's core
+    values.
+    </p>
+    <h3>Give Back</h3>
+    <ul>
+    <li>Be generous with your expertise, your time, your money.</li>
+    <li>Invest in the future of our communities and our Firm.</li>
+    <li>Mentor our next generation.</li>
+    </ul>
+    <br />
+    <h3>Testimonials</h3>
+    <blockquote>
+    <p>
+        "Children are natural consumers of digital information. However,
+        to engage them at a deeper level of understanding of Computer
+        science, so that they can evaluate, produce, and critique new
+        technology, we needed to get creative. We needed to introduce
+        electronics and programming in a highly tangible way early in the
+        education. This led us to the combination of two of the best of
+        breed technologies: Adafruit's Microcontrollers and Raspberry Pi's
+        laptop-computer. Specifically, Raspberry Pi 400 and Adafruit CPX
+        (often used by employees to teach their own children to code) - to
+        transform these young consumers of technology into
+        self-sufficient, digital citizens, who recognize they can be
+        creators of technology."
+    </p>
+    <cite>Kumar Vadaparty</cite>
+    </blockquote>
+    <blockquote>
+    <p>
+        The MS Makerspace program came into my life at exactly the right
+        time. After many years of helping my own children learn robotics
+        through extracurricular programs like the First Lego League, I
+        wanted to take what I had learned and share it with children who
+        might not have otherwise have access. Our MS Makerspace workshops
+        have created the perfect opportunity. Teaching kids who stand to
+        benefit the most from the right mentorship has been such a
+        fulfilling experience. If we continue to leverage the collective
+        knowledge of our Technology organization, I believe we can
+        continue to make a big difference in kids' lives by inspiring and
+        igniting a passion for technology.
+    </p>

+    </blockquote>
+    <blockquote>
+    <p>
+        MS Makerspaces embody what it means to Give Back through
+        skills-based volunteerism. Organically grown within Technology,
+        it's a movement that brings coding to children and young adults
+        who might not get regular exposure to Computer Science education.
+        Whether we're running a workshop at a school in Jersey City or a
+        shelter in the Bronx, there is something magical about watching a
+        young person realize that coding is cool, or that they have a gift
+        for thinking like a programmer.

+    <h2>What is Morgan Stanley STEM Extension?</h2>
+    <p>
+    Morgan Stanley's STEM Extension program takes our Makerspace
+    workshops to the next-level, providing week-on-week sustained
+    engagement with cohorts of students across New York, New Jersey, and
+    Maryland.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    The new initiative leverages physical computing through the
+    Raspberry Pi 400 computer and the Adafruit Feather Wing controllers,
+    in addition to the Adafruit Circuit Playground Express, to teach the
+    fundamentals of computer science education. The end goal? Connect
+    students with limited access to computer science education, helping
+    them move beyond being a consumer of technology into a
+    self-sufficient digital citizen.
+    </p>
+
+    <h2>Why Adafruit Circuit Playground Express?</h2>
+    <p>
+    Adafruit Industries, the manufacturer of CPX was founded by MIT
+    engineering pioneer. Limor "Lady Ada" Fried. We are proud to support
+    Adafruit Industries as a 100% women-owned top ranked manufacturing
+    company in the US. When establishing the company, Limor's goal was
+    to create the best place online for learning electronics and making
+    the best designed products for makers of all ages and skill-levels.{' '}
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    The Adafruit CPX is just that - an all-in-one circuit design board
+    packed full of features such as a processor, sensors, mini-speakers,
+    LED lights, and a USB port for streamlined software integration and
+    a fast feedback loop. The circuit is also multi-device compatible
+    which means it runs successfully across almost any of your favorite
+    operating systems including Windows, Mac, Chromebook and Linux.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Once your CPX device is connected to a computer, you can begin
+    programming interactive projects in a matter of minutes.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    The CPX also supports user choice in the programming environment and
+    language they wish to code. Students can implement programs using
+    Python, Microsoft Make Code, C/C++ and JavaScript.
+    </p>
+
+    <h2>Why Raspberry Pi?</h2>
+    <p>
+    The Raspberry Pi foundation is a UK-based charity that works to put
+    the power of computing and digital making into the hands of people
+    all over the world. The nonprofit was born from a desire to enough
+    more hands-on computer education to students and teachers alike.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Through their innovative Raspberry Pi devices, a single-board
+    computer, students can engage deeply with computer science education
+    at a low cost. Unlike a traditional computer, which hides its inner
+    working, a standard Raspberry Pi has all it's components, ports, and
+    features out on display.{' '}
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    The Raspberry Pi also encourages students to think creatively about
+    tasks in a complex, non-linear way.
