Project description

March 2020 the Maggie team built an ‘innovation lab’ school in Kakuma, a refugee camp in Kenya. This pop-up school functions completely off the grid. It creates its’ own energy through solar panels and has an internet connection. Inside there are more than a 100 laptops available for the community. Refugees can go to school here, have skill training and so much more. The project is donated to UNHCR Kenya.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
