STRIVE



On May 6, our Outreach Committee presented an engineering challenge to a group of WONDERFUL students from Allen High School and Whitehall High School. The students are part of an organization called STRIVE. The mission of STRIVE is to transform lives by motivating and inspiring youth to become productive leaders and culturally conscious stewards of the global community.
As part of our program, the students brainstormed a solution to a water problem very similar to our very own Sierra Leone Centennial School Project. They did an awesome job! They were thorough and passionate about their responses. Our STRIVE Inc. students would like to follow our progress in Sierra Leone, so stay tuned for more updates on this blog. And THANK YOU STRIVE, Inc. students for allowing us to have fun while still teaching cultural awareness!
