Community Impact

Project Helix is committed to expanding access to science education through free, student-created resources. To date, Project Helix has distributed educational zines to public libraries and is actively working to broaden its community reach through partnerships with nonprofit organizations, libraries, and schools.

Global Pitch Session

As part of this effort, Project Helix has presented its mission and educational materials during a pitch session -- hosted by Returnees Hotline -- to community organizations, sharing its goals for increasing access to science education and exploring opportunities for collaboration and resource distribution.

Project Helix is continuing to build relationships with youth organizations, libraries, and nonprofits to support meaningful, community-centered educational outreach.

Partnerships

Project Helix collaborates with community organizations to ensure that educational resources reach students and families who can benefit most.

Returnees Hotline

Returnees Hotline — Project Helix is currently in conversation with Returnees Hotline regarding a potential partnership to support educational outreach and resource distribution. Partnership confirmation is pending.
