How Might We reimagine temporary housing to help people in crisis?

In the Bright Spark® 2024 Invention Challenge, 4th to 12th grade students were asked to use design thinking to solve this important problem.

These young inventors have submitted 85 inventions as pitch videos. We need your help in determining our finalists.

Here's how it works:

Vote for the best inventions by 'liking' your favorite pitch videos on the Bridge Innovate YouTube Channel.

The most “liked” videos in each age group (Elementary School, Middle School, and High School) will become our finalists.

These finalists will move on to our panel of expert judges to determine our winners. The top “liked” video will receive our People’s Choice Award.

Public voting closes TODAY!
