The document proposes the creation of LostandFound.org, a non-profit organization that will develop GPS tracking devices disguised as everyday items to help parents keep their children safe. The organization will have a website and mobile app to allow parents to track the devices. It outlines plans to develop the devices, educate the public, and provide the solution free to low-income families. It proposes a 4-stage process including fundraising, research and development, deployment, and refinement cycles to achieve these goals.
2. Concept
Creation of a group of devices called “Lucky Charms” which the child would carry with them to make them traceable. These devices would be
disguised as common everyday items. They would be traceable through lostandfound.org website and cell phone application.
