Description

Pilot Projects presents the stories and the people behind the inspirational and world-changing work done by students, faculty, and staff at the University of Virginia. These passionate people made pitches to the Jefferson Trust, an organization that “makes grants to innovative ideas that enrich the University of Virginia and the student experience,” and have received the support they needed to grow their great ideas into groundbreaking and impactful realities for the community at UVA and the globe. Presented by the UVA Library Sound on Grounds team, Pilot Projects invites you to engage with the passion and people of Pilot Projects.
