International Projects
Source
Source is a project based in the Philippines and targets communities who are deprived of light. We realise that light, among other things such as food, are a part of the bare necessities in everyday life that we need to survive, however many do not have access to this. Source aims to tackle this problem through creating solar bottles which refract light into the house during the day whilst charging an LED light to be used at night. Using these bottles, we aim to improve the lives of many and empower the lives of much more.

Sustain-a-Bite
Based in Brazil, the purpose of this project is to reduce the wastage of Bagasse, a derivative of sugarcane, by manufacturing handy bite boxes and food containers. Our idea is to sell these simple items to provide consumers with a smart and easy way to waste and spend less: both their lives and the conditions of our beneficiaries, poor and unemployed people in the country, will be improved as a consequence.

Local Projects
Spark
Spark is a project that is taking place at King’s College Guildford, a local secondary school. The aim of this project is to help raise aspirations and increase the confidence of the children through a pilot day event, which will involve designing a business app and eventually presenting the idea. This project will eventually evolve into an after-school-club, which will help the students by building their skills. The winning team in the day event will receive work experience with one of our supporting businesses.
