Introduction
In conjunction with a STEM class from New Jersey’s Seton Hall Preparatory School, Syberry Corporation of Austin, Texas, launched a new web initiative to provide a central hub to match the urgent needs of COVID-19 frontline workers with individuals able to donate resources.
Under the guidance of their teacher, David Snyder, students in Seton Hall Prep’s STEM class decided to step up in a big way to support the medical community during COVID-19.
Their vision was covidresourcesnetwork.org, which was built to create one centralized, online portal where members of the medical community could list their needs and connect with individuals and small businesses who can help fulfil those needs. This included healthcare workers, police and fire departments, funeral homes, nursing homes and more.
"We saw all these really heartwarming stories going on, but everything seemed sort of randomized," said Snyder in an interview with Fox News NY.
"What the students saw was really a need to put all of those needs in one location, so that the public could go to one spot and get them as soon as they possibly could."
Realizing the work required to bring this vision to life in a clean, functional, efficient way, Snyder and his class reached out to Syberry for help, and the team was happy to lend a hand.
"We were inspired by the initiative these students were taking in finding a way to support the countless medical professionals battling this pandemic," said Syberry Executive Vice-President, Timour Procopovich. "COVID-19 was a unique threat that affected every single person on Earth in some way, and anything we could do to have some sort of impact — to bring people together in some way during those unprecedented times — was well worth the effort."
