Global Impact meets Deshpande

My team and I will be in Hubli, Karnataka installing an SMS network between hospitals and rural clinics to facilitate communication and increase efficiency of health care workers. I was fortunate enough to be part of a group of innovative minds across all curricula at USC to join in the common purpose of social entrepreneurship called Global Impact and funded by the Deshpande Foundation Grant. We will be dorming in the BVB Engineering College for 2 months during which we will initiate and implement our sustainable project, hopefully being able to see it grow and thrive before we bade it farewell. (see SMS journal for more info on project, Lena has written an excellent description!)
