Our Wednesday Design Open Mic was dedicated to project updates and sharing our goals in the year ahead.

We heard the latest news on the Happy Hearts Fund and ING Latin America School Building joint venture, Football for Hope and Students Rebuild, among others.

Goals included launching the next Open Architecture Challenge, hosting this year's Design Like you Give A Damn: LIVE! on October 21-22 and implementing our projects in Japan through the Tohoku Rebuilding Program.

For more information on other Architecture for Humanity projects and to find out how to get involved, explore our Projects page, as well as the Open Architecture Network.

Next week's Design Open Mic will bring us the latest on our Haiti program. Come on by on Wednesday from 12-1 pm if you're in the Bay Area.
