Please join us in developing a “Fusion Philanthropy App” to connect supportive people with fusion projects for the advancement of fusion.

Thanks to Princeton and the Carbon Mitigation Initiative for bringing us the Wedges Game.

The Philanthropy News Digest reports that the MIT Education Arcade has received a $3 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to research, design, and build a massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) to help high school students learn math and biology.
