Who Are They Designing For?
After arriving from Facebook, Fast Company or their most recent start-up, our fellows
criss crossed New York from Brownsville to the Bronx, learning more potential
solutions to problems facing the 25 million low income American families.
Meet the Fellows!
Margo & Team - Community College Students
Margo & team are designing an interactive mobile dashboard for college students that will help keep them on track to graduate.

Steph & Avi - Underbanked
Steph and Avi & team are designing for the underbanked. They will unveil a web-based tool to help the un- and underbanked find the right financial products and offer solutions to the barriers that keep them from accessing these services.
Jimmy & Team - Food Stamp Recipients
Jimmy & team are designing for the tens of millions of low-income Americans who qualify for government benefits. They built a simple mobile enrollment tool for food stamps as the first pillar of work to make it easier for people to navigate government applications.
Shazad & Team - First Time Smartphone Users
Shazad & team are designing for those under-using the power of their smartphone. They will share a launcher app designed to provide a simplified experience for first-time smartphone users.
