Lemelson-MIT InvenTeam Donations Information
A team of eleven students (two from the 2025 SLJC Green Team) from Johns Creek, honored to be one of eight teams in the country to be awarded a $7,500 grant from the prestigious Lemelson-MIT InvenTeam® program. Our goal is to create a solution to methane gas leakage from residential gas stoves. In June of 2024, we will travel to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for EurekaFest®, an invention celebration where our final prototype will be presented to the nation's top professors, researchers, and inventors. To make this happen, we're seeking support from our community. We need approximately $17,000 to cover the trip's costs and support the future of invention education. Your contribution will help improve homes locally and nationally. Join us in creating a cleaner, safer future. Thank you for being a part of our journey!
