Every year, thousands of student-built initiatives — apps, research, nonprofits, community programs — quietly disappear when their founders graduate. Project Relay exists to stop that.
Students build meaningful projects — research studies, community apps, nonprofit initiatives — and invest years of work into them.
Then they graduate. The next class doesn't know the project exists. Momentum is lost. The project dies.
This happens thousands of times a year across every university in the country. The collective loss is staggering.
Many programs help students start projects. We're built specifically to ensure those projects survive after the founder leaves.
Successors apply and connect directly with founders. The handoff is human — relationships, context, and knowledge transfer together.
Our Relay process ensures goals, materials, and momentum transfer completely — not just a GitHub link and a prayer.
Founders post their project with full context — goals, materials, what they've learned.
Relay surfaces qualified successors. Students apply, message, and connect directly.
The structured Relay process transfers everything — not just files, but momentum.
The project lives on — and grows beyond what the original founder imagined.
