"Tomorrow's Roundtable" is a documentary film project with a mission to empower children to accelerate their own education. Our story follows the journey of seven "at-risk" 6th and 7th graders in San Francisco who are in a new learning accelerator invented by kids. It's called "15 SEEDS." Currently the students in 15 SEEDS are learning to build and run their own company. On this journey, they experientially learn topics including financial literacy, business development, management, and public relations. This is packaged inside a foundation of > Wellness > Restorative Justice > Academic Impact
Here is a video glimpse: https://vimeo.com/139710813
We are looking for a volunteer to develop an app inspired by the ideas of the kids in 15 Seeds.

Mission Statement
Tomorrow's Roundtable is a Kids For Peace project. Kids For Peace empowers children with projects that cultivate their abilities to foster peace. We were founded in 2006. Since then we have grown to 250 chapters, engaging children in 102 countries through over 10,000 volunteers internationally who share a loving vision of peace. Our signature event is The Great Kindness Challenge (GKC), where kids perform as many kind deeds as possible using a checklist. In 2015 GKC involved 2,188,669 kids at 4,128 schools in 47 countries. They performed 109,433,450 acts of kindness. As children perform kind acts, kindness becomes habit and peace becomes possible.
Description
Kids For Peace is excited and honored to introduce a program called "Tomorrow’s Roundtable." (TR) This program empowers children to create sustainable solutions to social problems. Something wonderful happens when children are entrusted with responsibility. TR gives kids a platform to create and launch a campaign to solve a community problem using their own hearts and minds. Currently, the program is working with a group of children helping disadvantaged children. These kids invented a platform that provides numerous education solutions to underserved communities. It includes comprehensive after school and extended learning elements that are holistic with an emphasis on individual learning styles, the arts, and in-depth use of the 5 senses.
