Klara Ingersoll, former NuVu Student and 18 year old, has started the Laptop Project, a program that accepts donated laptops and distributes them to students.

"When Cambridge Rindge and Latin School senior Klara Ingersoll noticed that not all of her classmates had the same access to computers outside of school, she started a program to help.

At the end of her junior year when many students started bringing laptops to school, it became obvious not all students had them, Ingersoll said. When considering the students without access, Ingersoll said she also started to wonder about local electronic waste, especially with companies in Kendall Square that constantly upgrade their computers. According to Ingersoll, she began to wonder where the old computers went, and if they could be recycled.

In a CRLS course called The Graduation Project, Ingersoll conceived the idea for the Laptop Project, a program that accepts donated laptops and distributes them to students. Ingersoll partnered with the Harvard Square Business Association (HSBA) and Harvard COOP to put the project in motion."

Our first ever NuVu Kids Program was a huge success! This Spring, 16 students, ages 4-7, designed, problem-solved, and created projects focused around Movement and Animation. Our 6-week program ended last Saturday, and we hope to share details about our NuVu Kids Fall 2016 Program over the Summer. Thanks to all the kids and families that made it a great success!

Our Spring Exhibit & Demo Day blew it out of the water! Amazing demos and projects. And we were proud to commemorate our first NuVu graduate, Kate Reed!
