  • PhillySNAP - Bringing an SMS interface to finding fresh food available to participants of the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (formerly known as Food Stamps).
  • Sheltr - Helping individuals locate nearby food and homeless shelters.
  • Cost of Freedom - Bringing understanding and awareness to the impact of voter ID laws and how you can acquire an ID so you can vote.
  • WhoPaid - Identifying the funders of political ads through audio analysis.
