Our Impact
At Project Invent, our goal is to empower every student as a fearless, compassionate problem solver. We train and support teachers to lead classrooms where students tackle real-world problems through invention. Our work is defined by the impact we have on teachers, students, and the community partners they invent for nationwide.
"Project Invent has re-energized my teaching....My students engage more deeply in Project Invent than typical school projects, and I appreciate the opportunity to model risk-taking and push myself as an educator."
- Jill Hyatt, Fellow
"Normally in school, they ask you, “What would you do?” Project Invent forced us to wonder, “What can you do?” This pushed us out of our comfort zone to try something we’ve never tried before, and it was both nerve-racking and exciting.”
- Student, Girls Academic Leadership Academy
“There was a shift that happened with the students where they didn’t see a shift in the invention design as a failure, but as evolution - as progress. Seeing them build that confidence - as a teacher, that’s what you hope and dream for.”
- LaShonda Gardenhire, Fellow
