From Inspiration to Innovation: How the UNITED SIKHS Summit Helped Amplify CerebraML

New York, NY – August 18, 2025 — UNITED SIKHS is proud to announce a transformative partnership with CerebraML, a youth-led nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to artificial intelligence (AI) education. Together, we are launching a global initiative to provide free, beginner-friendly AI learning to middle and high school students to empower the next generation in using technology as a tool for service, leadership, and social impact.

The Advocacy and Humanitarian Aid Academy (AHAA) annually organized by the UNITED SIKHS is a leadership and service platform that brings together youth, professionals, and changemakers to explore how Sikh values can drive innovation, equity, and global impact. The summit fosters a space where ideas rooted in compassion and justice evolve into bold initiatives for real-world change.

It was during the Summit that CerebraML founder Sahej Anand Singh found renewed purpose. “At the AHAA Summit, I felt re-energized seeing how ideas can grow when you’re surrounded by people who care about impact,” said Singh. “It pushed me to take our vision even further.”

Founded in September 2023 by a group of passionate students, CerebraML offers interactive, accessible courses in machine learning and AI – designed specifically for youth with no prior programming experience. Their curriculum has already reached students as young as 11, guiding them to build real AI models and explore how technology can be used for social good. Monthly cohorts have helped hundreds of students gain confidence in coding, data science, and ethical innovation.

“Stories like Sahej’s are why AHAA exists,” said Hardayal Singh, UNITED SIKHS Founder and Programs Director. “It’s about creating spaces where advocacy meets innovation, and where young leaders are empowered to turn ideas into action. The partnership with CerebraML is a direct result of that energy, and we’re excited to help scale their impact globally.”

Through this initiative, UNITED SIKHS will integrate CerebraML’s curriculum into its international network of youth programs, educational outreach efforts and UMEED Project. The goal is to ensure that young people, especially those from underserved communities, have the tools to thrive in a tech-driven world and use AI to uplift others.

This collaboration marks a new chapter in UNITED SIKHS’ commitment to education, equity, and empowerment. By bridging the worlds of humanitarian service and technological innovation, the organization is helping shape a future where leadership is defined not just by knowledge, but by compassion and purpose.
