Teen Builds Skincare App at Design Camp | Jamaica News

from Jamaica News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A 12-year-old prodigy, Shailene Thompson, just launched her own skincare app after mastering design and coding at a creative camp—thanks to a LASCO Financial Services scholarship. Armed with Canva and grit, she turned her passion into profit, selling serums and lotions through her platform. The camp, now serving over 300 kids across Jamaica—including those with hearing impairments and from underserved communities—empowers youth to see creativity as a career. Founded by Carey-Lee Dixon, it’s proof that with the right tools, young minds can become tomorrow’s innovators. LASCO sees this as more than sponsorship—it’s investing in Jamaica’s future leaders.
