Aadhan.org – modify shipping containers into movable buildings, to operate skill classes in rural India

I remember sitting in a tacky cafe in Chennai. It was February 2014 and I was meeting Akshat, one of my brother’s best friends since he was in town for the day. With a glint of excitement in his eyes, he leaned forward and said “I’ve been reading about this organization in South Africa using shipping containers to build schools.

How a Pakistani teen Sumail Hassan made $200000 in e-sports

In the spring of 2014, after a decade of visa problems, the Hassan family moved out of its spacious house in Karachi, Pakistan, to an apartment in Rosemont, a suburb of Chicago near O’Hare International Airport.

Vivilio endeavors to create a community where the book lovers can discover great content created around books which strives to further impinge their interest in reading through interaction with...
