Case study

Meet Peter and Maya, two secondary school students from East London, passionate about coding but lacking access to resources and mentorship. Building Founders provided them with a transformative opportunity.

Through Building Founders’ tech entrepreneurship programme, Peter and Maya gained coding skills, developed a mobile app to address food insecurity in their community, and connected with industry mentors who guided their journey.

Their app, FoodLink, connects local businesses with surplus food to families in need, reducing waste and providing nourishment. It has been adopted by local organisations, promoting community resilience and addressing a critical social issue.

Peter and Maya’s story showcases the power of youth innovation and the impact of Building Founders’ commitment to bridging the tech gap. They’ve become role models, inspiring other young people to pursue their tech dreams and create solutions for social good.
