How a Mother's Determination Made Free Courses Possible

On October 23, 2024, the President of Bright Minds of Macedonia, Anita Atanasova-Grchev, gave an interview to Motika titled “How a Mother's Determination Made Free Courses Possible for Talented Children in Macedonia.”

Key Highlights:

“What inspired you to start this organization?”

“My son was the greatest inspiration behind the founding of Bright Minds. For several years, he has been a member of the national teams representing Macedonia in international informatics competitions. As the parent of a talented child, I know firsthand what kind of support and resources a gifted child needs to follow the path to success.

Unfortunately, we live in an environment where talented students are still not sufficiently recognized. Parents who have the means must find their own ways to support their children. Those who do not have the resources are left with children who carry little more than the label of a ‘talented child.’”

“Can you tell us about the mission and vision of Bright Minds?”

“Our mission is to inspire, nurture, and empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and leaders in Macedonia. By fostering a culture of curiosity, creativity, and collaboration, we aim to provide opportunities for education, mentorship, and personal growth.

We strive to connect bright minds with the resources and platforms they need to unlock their full potential, driving positive change in their communities and the world.”
