Feedback from the Judges:
Pursuing a college education can certainly strain one's finances, and linking students with volunteer opportunities can provide not only financial relief but also foster the social and entrepreneurial skills necessary for future leadership roles. Great project!
Hi Kailyn. I love this idea and the way you executed this project. Your project description is extremely well-written and draws the reader in. Your slides are also eye-catching—the mock-ups look professional and are easy to follow. How you communicate an idea is important in the work I do, and I was very impressed by your ability to clearly explain your vision. I would’ve loved to learn more about the design process you followed to arrive at your final design. Also, have you considered adding an option for users to link their Future for U accounts to a 529 college savings plan so they can transfer funds? Overall, you did a fine job on this project!
