Engaging Projects
Projects done by students, at our Learning Nooks that help them understand basic concepts of STEM, and also give them the key skills to collaborate, communicated, be creative about their solution and use critical thinking to solve problems using limited resources available to them. These projects also enable them to express themselves creatively. In September we saw student leads take up the projects, from group wide projects eariler in August 2022.

Report September 2022
We had a slowdown on our Fund raise in August of 2022, and keeping this request in mind, we had some Extended Family Membmers from the Founder's Board, come forward and donate this month, for continuing the work that we do. Our search for a Face to Face Fundraiser is still on, and we have not find the suitable candidate.
In September, we introduced another level of interaction using Makey Makey as a tool and children have built some beautiful interactions using Human and Machine Interface to build programmes, and play things that encourage them to explore STEM and 21st Century Skills.
Current & Future Outlook
- A Fundraiser Event is Planned for December 2022, and we have started identifying our next steps
- We have started to identify the location for our Second Nook, and should be looking at a December launch
- We continue to look for a Face to Face Fund raiser, and are also now hiring for Additional Facilitator for the Second Nook
- MakersBox Foundation is looking for connects with CSR, Corporate, and Philanthropists for raising funds, and is seeking help
Fund Flow Statement
- At the end of September, we have cash that allows for operations of October, and November and will need to focus on fundriase for the next few months
