Over the summer I had the chance to talk to a class of 11th-graders at a professional tutoring company in India about the American education system and about Project Curiosity.
Just last year, the numerous donations of Project Curiosity were recognized in the renowned newspaper The Daily Herald. The author of the article writes about the creation of Project Curiosity and what we, as a program, strive to achieve. Click here to read the full article.

Donated to Sue's Food Pantry!
Me, with 2 volunteers from Vernon Hills High School Robotics Team (Lin Ni, Palaniyappan Kannan), donating the raised money to a local food pantry.
In the summer of 2023, Project Curiosity held its first ever in-person class: the Arduino Robotics Camp! Over the 2 sessions held, we raised over $600 for Sue's Food Pantry (link to website).
​
We also partnered with the Vernon Hills High School Robotics Team for this camp, and were able to recruit many students as future Robotics Team members!
Helped Bookmobile!
Me with the Cook Library's Bookmobile, which we helped renovate due to the generous donations received last year from our students.
In our 2 years of the summer of 2021 & 2022, Project Curiosity received tons of support and was an overall great success! Students from over 15 states & Canada enrolled in our program. Due to this support, we have been able to conduct 4 sessions during which we managed to raise over $2000! All the money has been donated, with $1800 to UNICEF and $200+ to our local Cook Memorial Public Library District! We received awesome feedback on our teaching which you read below!
