I’d love to ask a quick favor for an incredible student connected to our S.T.E.A.M. Race to Space Reading Challenge community.
A talented young high school student named Sai Sitaraman has been selected as 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝟏𝟕 𝒈𝒍𝒐𝒃𝒂𝒍 𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒔 in an international website creation competition for a project he created called SeniorCare Connect — a website designed to help seniors and families connect with care resources.
What impressed me most is that while many students his age are building projects for themselves, Sai chose to create something meant to help others.
He now needs public votes for the “Popular Site” award, and voting only takes about a minute. 𝑽𝒐𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒄𝒍𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒐𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒓𝒐𝒘 — 𝑺𝒂𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒅𝒂𝒚, 𝑴𝒂𝒚 𝟗 — 𝒔𝒐 𝒘𝒆’𝒓𝒆 𝒉𝒐𝒑𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝒑𝒖𝒔𝒉 𝒐𝒇 𝒔𝒖𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕.
Here’s how: https://www.wix.com/tomorrow/finalists2026
✔️ Click the link
✔️ Scroll down to the 9th project: SeniorCare Connect
✔️ Click “Vote”
✔️ A popup asking “Are you sure?” will appear — simply close it
✔️ Then click “Vote” again and it should change to “Voted”
No sign-up or personal information is required.
Let’s cheer on a young person who is using technology in a thoughtful and meaningful way. I know your support would mean a lot to him and his family.
Please feel free to share this post as well. 🌟

The Artemis II spacecraft will enter Earth's atmosphere at about 25,000 miles per hour, enduring searing temperatures up to 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
I'm attending a Artemis II splashdown party at the Columbia Memorial Space Center.
