RE: Daily Giveaway #215 - 4/14

Not entirely sure if #3 results in a prize for the person recommended as well, but if not, just give my prize to him if I do happen to win.

3: @epicdave - Does excellent science education work with refugee children in Turkey, Syria, and Iraq despite minimal funding.

Thank you very much @ribbitingscience !

Still pushing forward this year, hoping to make an exciting announcement soon for Iraq, and Turkey! Hoping to get joint STEM projects running soon for schools/universities there with support from UK/US.

Hoping to post an update in a few months time. Fingers crossed!

Best of luck! By the way, are you still interested in those papers regarding the space-enhanced science curriculum we discussed over a year ago? I happened to look at my email earlier today and realized I never actually sent the message to that professor's department to see if he still had the materials, assignments, and background information.

That would be perfect! :D
I'm going to make another push with Space related stuff for kids in Iraq after I get the University project sorted out for them.

Still, no support from the UK or any so-called 'advocate' group though but is to be expected. But if a task is worth doing then such obstacles must be overcome!

Very nice, the email has been sent to his former department - he's retired now - but we'll see if there's interest on his part.

@ribbitingscience #2 could win you personally a prize while #3 is an act of kindness is trying to help someone else and they would get the prize in that case with a mention to you showing everyone of your good deed. :)
