Submit Your Project Idea
As you think about your project idea, consider:
- Do you want to work independently, with a partner, or in a group of three?
- Are you making something that you want to get into the hands of those who need it immediately (ie: knitting caps for cancer patients)? Are you setting up an ongoing way to help others make a difference (ie: Little Free Library)? Are you designing a model of a product/system/contribution that could eventually help others (ie: a new kind of water filtration system)?
- Is there an organization that you have identified that can benefit from what you would like to create?
- What supplies do you need?
- What questions do you have?
