FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES
Because this will take time to do well, we purposely have not scheduled a new project at this time. With that said, we would like to give you an idea of how our projects work, and what we’re thinking.
WHERE WILL PROJECTS TAKE PLACE? We are pursuing new project opportunities in Colombia, Greece, Poland, Trinidad and Tobago and Puerto Rico. We are also planning to offer social design retreats in the US.
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE? Project Resound is for compassionate creatives—students and professionals who wish to use their skills and talents to serve and empower others while having fun. It's for those who want to travel to exotic locations, meet new friends, and explore new and ancient cultures. Our projects are about We! — not Me! They’re perfect for team players who help find a way to succeed despite unforeseen challenges.
WHAT WILL YOU DO? While working with a talented team of subject matter experts, you will experience cultural immersion, team building, contextual research, analysis, systems and design thinking, rapid ideation, and prototyping in order to create unique solutions to real-world problems.
THE RESULT? Worthy clients will benefit from our research, strategy, and design—a valuable gift that will be helpful to their cause, and for some, truly life-changing! Giving of ourselves without the expectation of reward is soul-satisfying and spiritually uplifting! The project may also have other positive effects—as we learn and apply new skills and methods, garner a unique portfolio piece, and gain new friends. (Also, many participants choose to extend their stay in order to further enjoy and explore the culture and exotic location.)
PAST PROJECTS
PAST PROJECTS
We were excited to go to beautiful Colombia, the South American nation that has higher levels of biodiversity per square kilometer than any other country on earth. Our team experienced the historic Spanish architecture of Cartagena and the infectious local exuberance for living life while using our skills to serve the farmers of the formerly war-torn region of Montes de María.
The Cherokee people have persevered through triumph and tragedy—an incredible story of betrayal, survival and reestablishment. Project Resound was asked to help carry on this legacy by creating designs that further the Cherokee Historical Association’s mission to “perpetuate and preserve the history and culture of the Cherokee People.”
In Rio de Janeiro we were enchanted with a spectacular landscape that included world famous beaches, mountains and monuments, but most of all—we enjoyed meeting the free-spirited Cariocas, our Brazilian friends!
In this climatically diverse region we found beautiful colonial cities, active volcanoes and local farmers growing some of the world’s finest coffee. Here we partnered with the wonderful professors and design students of the Universidad del Istmo (UNIS).
This was the first Project Resound held outside of the US. We were a design team within a larger team from Savannah's Community Bible Church. Together we headed to Nagarote, Nicaragua to do good works.
During a 2-day design challenge in Allendale, South Carolina we found a place poor in funds, yet rich in spirit.
