In 2013, Gabby Frst funded Buddy Prject when she was 15. At that time her best friend had been diagnsed(诊断)with a mental health cnditin, and that was the first time she was made aware f what mental illness was. She wanted t learn mre and develp a gd supprt system fr her.
Mental illness affects tens f millins f peple in the United States each year, yet nly half receive treatment, accrding t the Natinal Institutes f Mental Health. Buddy Prject's website says the service is nt a substitute fr therapy r ther types f mental health care, and that it directs peple t resurces fr further help.
Since funding the rganizatin as a high schl student, Frst has helped mre than 200,000 participants find a new friend. On the day when Buddy Prject was launched, she used her pwerful scial media presence t attract nearly 3,000 participants. “This was arund the time when teens really began talking abut mental health and fund a supprtive cmmunity nline t talk abut it," she said.

Elderly peple have a higher chance f suffering frm illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.

There is n cure fr Alzheimer’s at the mment--drugs can nly treat its symptms.
But technlgy can imprve the lives f thse living with the cnditin by making it easier fr them t g abut their daily activities.

When a sensr detects mvement, it can play a recrded vice message t remind the persn t lck the dr r turn ff the stve.

Drive thrugh any suburb in the US tday, and it’s hard t miss the bins that have becme cmpanins t America’s trash cans. Recycling has becme cmmnplace, as peple recgnize the need t care fr the envirnment. Yet mst peple’s recycling cnsciusness extends nly as far as paper, bttles, and cans.
