I have a contact @RTP. STEM AT THE PARK is a tenant there. Contact Sarah
Windsor. Let me ask first if she would be willing to consider. What would
she be required to do? Is there a cost? There might be an exchange of
volunteer work for her non-profit. Host a tech fair for her outreach
program. But that can be offered in exchange. You have some very creative
people in the group that could host a hackaton for middle school kids
sometime?

Call me in morning 6199971329 after 10:45
