Proposal
Summary
In 2025, we funded Hector Foundation to pilot GEAR Lab, an advanced robotics camp for graduates in Port-au-Prince. Over 2 weeks, 20 students completed 50+ hours of intensive training and every pair built a working mini Segway robot. Student surveys showed significant gains in confidence and understanding of university-level engineering concepts.
This proposal uses $13,700 to fund a full year of GEAR Lab cohorts in 2026, serving 80-120 students across 4-6 cohorts.
