Rebuild South Sudan

SEED Award @ University of Minnesota

Published March 25, 2013

Rebuild Sudan was honored not only to be a SEED Award Recipient, present our project at the University of Minnesota College of Design’s first ever Public Interest Design Week, but to be welcomed with open arms into the public interest design community. We literally brought people to tears with Michael’s story and our organization’s hope for the future. Such a great reminder of why we’re doing what we’re doing and how grateful we are for the support of our donors, team, and new friends! We are grateful for the opportunity and connections the weekend provided that will no doubt further our cause into the future.
