Her online network of small groups encourages people to meet in real life and she hopes to strengthen these connections through her residency.

Noah Nasiali, brought more than 100,000 farmers together across Africa. His community helps farmers obtain knowledge and share information that has critical impact in the physical world of farming, including increased production and profits. Paula Pfeifer, someone who broke the social isolation caused by hearing loss by creating a community with others who share her experience. She brings people in Brazil who are deaf and use technology to hear together to offer emotional support and share useful information with each other.

Furthermore, the program will consist of 100 fellows and youth participants that are to receive up to $50,000 each to be used for their community initiative.
