Passion Project Update: Making a Difference

Passion Project Check in.

I wanted to share with you the work Niko and Jay have done since the passion project finished. They have continued working towards supporting their charity and set up this gofundme.com site. Pursuing a passion into the real world and acting upon that passion is exactly what we hope these projects will accomplish. Congratulations to Niko and Jay for the work they have done. If you can, support their fund raising efforts.  Consider supporting the boys also through sharing their links on your own social media sites.
