T-Mobile

Bellevue-based T-Mobile recently held its Changemaker Challenge and decided to award the grand prize to the winners of all three categories in the contest. Changemaker Challenge is a nationwide search for youth ages 13-23 with big ideas on how to change the world. Thirty teams attended a three-day lab at the company's headquarters and three came out on top: Ava (technology), Stories Untold US (education) and Youth Climate Action Coalition (environment). Ava is a video game that helps neurodiverse youth apply social skills in a safe and accessible space. Stories Untold provides a platform and voice for those affected by gun violence. Youth Climate Action Coalition helps schools become more sustainable through low-flow water faucets and composting. Each of the winning teams will get $10,000 in seed funding for their project and a return trip to T-Mobile for more mentoring.
