Our Crowdfunding Groups
Our crowdfunding campaign has ended but you can still support the Global Development Lab by clicking here.
Thank you again for your continued support!
We are excited to invite you to our annual Project Showcase premiering on our YouTube channel on June 5 at 10:00 AM PST, where our Project Incubator members will be presenting their capstone projects. Thanks to your generous support, we will be able to provide multiple grants to fund our members' initiatives! During the Showcase, a panel of judges will award select students with a preliminary grant to initiate their projects, and we will also be hearing updates on projects that have received grants in previous years. Viewers will have the opportunity to ask questions to the project members through the live chat feature.
We would love for you to join us in celebrating our cohort's hard work throughout the past year. Please click this link to register for the event and find additional details. We hope to see you there!
Warm regards,
The GDL Team
