IgniteSci is a 1:1 research mentorship and coaching program designed to help middle and high school students create science fair projects that truly stand out. Led by a 2× state science fair champion with published research and over $5,000 in scholarships, the program combines expert guidance with an AI writing assistant trained on real ISEF-winning projects. Students follow a proven, research-backed structure that takes their ideas from concept to competition — at a fraction of the cost of elite programs like Lumiere or Polygence. Whether you're aiming for your first fair or national-level recognition, IgniteSci equips you with the tools to stop guessing and start winning.
In the USA, 3.5 million kids under 14 miss out on school sports each year due to physical disabilities, genetic disorders, or chronic health conditions. These children are also 400% more likely to experience social isolation, depression, and lower academic performance when excluded from physical activity, and only 1 in 10 schools offer inclusive sports programs. For these kids, the field, court, or track isn’t just a place to play — it’s a barrier they can’t cross. Not because they lack talent or passion, but because the system lacks accessible solutions.
But what if that changed?
Breakthroughs in sports medicine and orthopedics — like prosthetics, bionics, artificial limbs, and stem cell or CAR-T therapies — are giving children with physical challenges the tools to move, play, and thrive. These innovations don’t just treat symptoms; they offer long-term solutions that restore ability and independence. Even more importantly, research helps democratize access — making advanced treatments more affordable and available to all kids, not just a privileged few.
Founded in 2021 by Rakshith Srinivasan, Unlimited Potential has grown into a student-led movement with over 100 volunteers and 500+ grassroots donors, raising >$100,000 for cutting-edge research in sports medicine. UP has built a network of advisors — doctors, researchers, and mission-aligned leaders — who mentor volunteers in research selection, campaign strategy, donor outreach, and connections to medical institutions. With their guidance, UP has helped support major hospitals and programs like Seattle Children’s and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center.
With Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, we can create a future where every advancement in cancer care is an advancement for all. Support us in transforming this vision into a reality.
