All-Girl Engineer Team Invents Solar-Powered Tent For The Homeless

All-Girl Engineer Team Invents Solar-Powered Tent For The Homeless | Go-Green-Team | Scoop.it
From www.scarymommy.com - June 20, 2017 6:45 PM
After witnessing the increasing number of homeless people in their community, a team of high school girls with no previous DIY experience joined forces to find a solution. It took a year, and over the weekend, they presented their invention at MIT’s young inventors conference.

The twelve girls attend San Fernando High School, which is 20 miles outside of Los Angeles. According to a story on Mashable, homelessness in the area increased 36% last year.
