The Woman Behind the Sports Bra Lisa Z. Lindahl invented the sports bra out of personal necessity. She had no idea it would become an iconic symbol of gender equality. In 1972, the United States passed Title IX – a new law prohibiting discrimination in any federally funded education program on the basis of sex. By 1975, what was known as the “women’s liberation movement” had swept the country. Women were coming into their own, working hard to carve out new roles for themselves at home and in sports, culture, politics, and business. The door opening for women to enjoy the same “playing fields” in life as men was one thing, but the physical reality of being on literal playing fields was still a challenge for many women – including Lisa Lindahl. Lisa was...

Giving Working Dogs the Peaceful Retirement They Deserve Mission K9 Rescue creates happy endings for retired military working dogs, contract working dogs, and police K9s who have served humankind. Working dogs are an integral part of the efforts American law enforcement, military, and supporting contractors undertake at home and abroad.

Igniting the Powur of the Crowd Jonathan Budd and Powur are building an army of “Solar-preneurs” to crowdsource rooftop solar, halt carbon-based climate change and accelerate the shift to a new global energy paradigm The one thing humans need to survive, besides oxygen, water, food and shelter, is energy. A $6 trillion/year industry, energy is poised to grow by 80 percent through 2040 as China and India adopt modern living standards. Yet our energy infrastructure is built on an outdated centralized grid and dirty fossil fuels, pushing us ever closer to an “irreversible tipping point” of climate change with unknown consequences. “We are rolling the dice on what the earth is going to look like 50 years from now and if it will be habitable,” says Jonathan Budd, who is working to expand solar...

Helping America’s high-achieving students fulfill their dreams High-achieving high school students often do not get the support they should in school.
