This week, we welcomed youth from across the country for a new year of invention, beginning with a question:
💡 What do you want to make possible for your community? 💡

From mental health support to a cleaner environment, we can’t wait to see the inventions students create to bring these hopes to life!

We’re excited to announce that the Adobe Foundation has awarded Project Invent a $20,000 grant!

This support will help expand Project Invent’s invention education across the Bay Area, giving more middle and high school students the opportunity to use creativity, technology, and engineering to tackle real challenges in their communities.

The grant will help support students as they work alongside Community Partners, learn from STEM professionals, and develop technology-based solutions throughout the year, culminating in Demo Day NorCal in San Francisco, where students will pitch their inventions to a panel of judges.

We’re grateful to the Adobe Foundation for investing into the next generation to create, innovate, and make an impact! 💡

15 Macquarie volunteers. Countless opportunities for young inventors! 💡📦

Last week, Macquarie employees in Houston rolled up their sleeves to assemble and pack Project Invent’s Classroom Innovation Kits, filled with the tools and technology students will use to design, prototype, and bring their inventions to life this school year!

This incredible hands-on effort was made possible by Project Invent Board Member and Macquarie champion Aaron Perez.

We’re so grateful to the Macquarie Group Foundation, Aaron, and the entire volunteer team for a partnership that goes beyond funding to create meaningful, hands-on impact for the next generation of fearless, compassionate problem solvers! 💜

🌟 Exciting News! 🌟
We’re honored to share that the Henry Luce Foundation has renewed its investment in Project Invent with a $100,000 grant to continue advancing girls in STEM. 💡

This support will help us expand partnerships with all-girls schools, continue evaluating long-term outcomes for young women in STEM, and strengthen our Facilitator Training program by connecting students with near-peer women engineers.

Together, we’re helping more girls build the confidence, skills, and leadership to become the next generation of inventors and changemakers.

Thank you, Henry Lucr Foundation, for your continued partnership and belief in our students! 💜

What happens when young inventors connect with industry professionals?

Curiosity sparks. Career paths open up. New possibilities come into focus.

Last week, Project Invent students from across the country joined KLA volunteers for a virtual career networking session exploring education, careers, and the many paths to meaningful work.

Huge thanks to the and KLA employees for sharing their experiences, answering questions, and encouraging students to keep pursuing what excites them most. These connections help students imagine what’s possible for their futures—and that’s what career-connected learning is all about.

Meet Dr. Rabiah Harris — one of our two 2026 Emerging Fellows of the Year. 🎉

Dr. Harris hails from a little bit of everywhere in the U.S., but happily calls Washington, D.C. home these days. She currently teaches STEM electives and IB Design at Eliot-Hine Middle School — the latest stop in a 20+ year career that’s taken her across public and charter schools in D.C., Pittsburgh, and New Orleans, teaching science and STEM to students in grades 6–12.

When she’s not in the classroom, you’ll find her out and about with her 17-year-old son or curled up with a good book.

Two decades in, and she’s still showing up for students with the same energy that got her started. Congratulations, Dr. Harris! 💙
