This is our first project under the umbrella of The Dream Project, lead by Himanshu Savardekar, Cameron Conte, and Caroline Klug, aims to inspire underprivileged youth to aim big and seek out careers and dreams to pursue higher education.

This popsicle project served the middle schoolers at the Columbus Families Foundation, which attempted to integrate engineering lessons and teach teamwork, adaptability, and critical thinking. We also had a whiteboard session which explored career options to get our feet wet about their future interests as well. We will be working with these same kids all year through many innovative project based learning events such as this one.

We are excited to announce the release of our latest video "A Day in the Life of a Homeless Person" as a part of our project called the Pillars of Enlightenment!

In this short film, we take you through a series of difficulties and scenarios that homeless individuals are plagued with every day. With this, we hope you think twice about completely ignoring individuals, and allow yourself to be placed in their shoes, at least for four minutes.

Hey everyone! Please check out our First visit to the YWCA Family Center! We plan on using our interviews from these homeless families to inform us on issues that are important to them. We plan on lobbying on their behalf at the local, state, and national level. This effort was lead by Our Director Avish Jain and his team.
