SafeBox - An effective solution to prevent package theft
Last year alone, a C+R survey indicated that one in seven online shoppers had at least one package stolen. The goal of this project is to create a delivery box that prevents package theft by alerting the owner and the neighborhood in case of one. This project is built using Raspberry Pi with Arduino Uno. The system uses an HX711 load cell to continuously monitor the weight. When the weight is changed, the Arduino sensor sends the signal to Raspberry Pi which has the Python algorithm for alerts/notifications, along with passcode validation for the owners.

Poverty Solvers
Poverty has affected around 650 million lives and it is still affecting many people to this day. For this reason I thought it would be a good idea to create Poverty Solvers, a website with the intention to give users the ability to make a difference with poverty. Poverty Solvers is a resource for any person who would like to donate or volunteer to a foodbank, homeless shelter, or organization.
