Yesterday we had the opportunity to work with We Are The New Farmers, who have found the potential solution to healthy living through Spirulina! We were able to work on challenges regarding distribution to get Spirulina in the hands of more people to enjoy and receive its amazing benefits!

We’re excited to see SeaStraws doing amazing things!

NYU Bought a Semester’s Worth of Sustainable Straws From This Student-Run Company The university backs Seastraws, a student-run company seeking to reduce the amount of plastic in oceans, by providing their straws in select dining halls.

Jon Chin, a NYU alumni, started Share Meals in 2013 based on findings that 42% of college students are food insecure and 9% of students went entire days without eating because they couldn’t afford food.

Share Meals is a digital platform where students can share extra meal swipes and post extra food from club events with students who are food insecure. Additionally, they host open community cooking classes, and regularly pack and donate food for fellow students.

Since its founding, Share Meals has been featured on US News and the New York Times. We’re so excited to work them tomorrow evening at 6PM in room UC-19!

Last week N.I.C.E. held a Casing Workshop where members learned how to improve their consulting skills with useful frameworks! This week, we will be working with Share Meals as we aim to tackle food insecurity on university campuses. Food will be served!

For our first N.I.C.E session next Tuesday (9/25), we are hosting Skinno, the only mobile app that scans complicated skincare ingredients labels and translates them into plain English! Skinno provides consumers with accessible and scientifically accurate information about the skincare products that you use everyday. Over time, the app will even customize skincare routines and recommend products to the user based on their specific skin type. It’s clear that Skinno is introducing much-needed transparency to the skincare industry!

Skinno was founded by Lisa Guerrera and Christina Torres soon after they graduated CCNY with degrees in cosmetic engineering and biology. In the early stages of Skinno, the team won the Nestle Skin Health Hackathon! Since then, they’ve received seed funding from the Zahn Innovation Center and are working hard to help more people on their skincare journeys. Come out for a great N.I.C.E session!

Last week N.I.C.E. Consulting got to work with Dollarides to work on financing and expansion techniques. A lot of great ideas resulted from it! And as a reminder, there is no N.I.C.E. meeting this Thursday because we encourage you all to attend Ally Week events! See you all next week and, as usual, tag yourselves in photos!

This week NICE members got right back to work after a relaxing spring break. We had a blast consulting for PIPs- a subscription platform that rewards you for your healthy and sustainable actions. Come out next Thursday to learn more about Food for All- an app that tackles food insecurity!

N.I.C.E Consulting has been busy providing product and branding ideas for Libellule over the last week during our Thursday workshop (6:00-7:30pm)! Libellule will use our proposals moving forward to improve their image. We can’t wait to have everyone back after spring break to join Net Impact Accenture and many other non profits! Happy spring break everyone!

Last week in N.I.C.E. we consulted for Learningateway's new initiative CollegeQorps! Many new faces came through, and we got some brilliant brainstorming done regarding value propositions and user engagement. Check out the photos we took and, as always, tag away!
