DJ Focus & Innovate Salone

This YouTube video has garnered 1M+ views since it was posted five days ago. Clearly I'm not the only one who feels compelled to share it :)



I know it's not #GivingTuesday but you can help Innovate Salone empower more Sierra Leonean youth like Kelvin Doe (aka "DJ Focus") by contributing to the project's Crowdrise campaign. 

The project's founder, David Sengeh wants to provide a basic set of tools and supporting platform to transform good ideas into projects that impact entire communities. To get an idea of the other youth who have participated in the national high school innovation challenge check out Innovate Salone's 2012 finalists. These finalists invented solutions to problems they see in their daily lives.

Innovate Salone is a project of Global Minimum Inc. (GMin) a 501(c)3 founded in the US in 2006 "to empower locals who wish to create and implement their own solutions to the issues that they truly understand."
