Read More"As a facilitator, I loved participating in ProjectConnect! Over the course of a month and a half we established a tight-knit group of dorm residents that really became a great support community. The potential for ProjectConnect is huge: it aims to fix the communication gap in today's world between people from vastly different backgrounds, and ultimately make the world a better place. I was glad to have played a small role as facilitator for the program and hope the magic of ProjectConnect continues.”
