Good Centre is a youth-focused nonprofit rooted in Creativity, Community, and Character. We empower young minds through hands-on STEM education, leadership development, and recreational programs that build confidence and spark curiosity.
From racing remote controlled cars and flying drones to building teamwork through pickleball and paintball leadership clinics, every experience is hands-on, inclusive, and designed to inspire.
We believe real change starts with real opportunities. That’s why we focus on bridging gaps and creating pathways—especially for students in underserved communities.
Headquartered in Syracuse, NY, Good Centre is expanding its impact across schools, families, and partners who share our commitment to education, equity, and empowerment.
Our RC Car STEM Labs put curiosity in motion. Students dive into hands-on learning by assembling and customizing their own remote-controlled vehicles—exploring real-world concepts like mechanics, motion, and electrical systems along the way. From testing gear ratios to fine-tuning their builds, participants gain critical thinking skills, confidence, and a deeper appreciation for how things work—all in a collaborative, high-energy environment that makes STEM come alive.
Our Drone & Flight Skills program takes learning to new heights—literally. Students get hands-on experience piloting drones while discovering the core principles of flight, navigation, and aerial technology. Through guided sessions, they explore concepts like lift, balance, and safety protocols in a fun, structured environment. Along the way, they sharpen spatial awareness, focus, and teamwork—all while fueling a real curiosity for aviation and the tech shaping tomorrow.
Our Pickleball & Paintball programs bring energy, excitement, and growth to every session. Whether rallying on the court or navigating strategic missions in the field, students develop coordination, focus, and leadership through active play. Pickleball builds teamwork and communication in a fast-paced, inclusive environment, while Paintball Leadership challenges youth to think critically, stay composed, and collaborate under pressure. It’s fun with purpose—designed to build confidence, character, and connection.
