Join us as we escape into Project Schoolhouse!

We're excited to welcome Selina Serna, Executive Director, and Shannon Fohn, Board VP, at Project Schoolhouse to the conversation! First we explore how technology can help mission-driven organizations do more with less. We discuss how AI, automation, and smarter tools can support small teams, strengthen messaging, and expand impact without expanding budgets.

Then, we escape into Project Schoolhouse! Project Schoolhouse believes every child deserves a quality education, every community deserves clean water, and schools can be the foundation for stronger, sustainable communities. They work with local communities to build schools, provide clean water, and improve sanitation, helping families keep kids in the classroom. Focused in rural Nicaragua, many villages are remote, lack basic utilities, and families survive on less than $2/day. By addressing education, water, and sanitation together, Project Schoolhouse creates lasting, community-driven change.

Ways Project Schoolhouse makes an Impact:

Building Schools & Supporting Education – Partnering with communities to give children access to quality education. Providing Clean Water & Improving Sanitation – Ensuring families have safe water and healthier living conditions. Empowering Communities – Facilitating grassroots projects with local volunteer participation for lasting change.
