Alex and Hayden presented their project 'Second Chance', aimed at solving the elderly care, disability and homelessness crisi s during COVID-19. This is what the boys had to say about their presentation: “Our project is called Second Chance, it is aimed to help those who are homeless, the elderly, the disabled and the people effected by COVID-19. Our projects allows the homeless, elderly and the disabled to work together to create a space where they can all live in peace.”
