Dynamic Edge is excited to announce a new philanthropic partnership with its client Utilities Instrumentation Service for Lucid Hope Scholarships. This collaboration will help to furnish award winners with laptop computers.

“We’re proud to partner with our friends at Utilities Instrumentation Service, a DE client since 2008, on this important effort,” says Dynamic Edge CEO Tim Neiman. “It’s extremely gratifying to bring technology to students who can use it to change the world – both for themselves and their communities.”

Lucid Hope Scholarships for Bangladesh is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2020. Lucid Hope offers scholarships to undergraduate students in Bangladesh with financial need who display academic achievement, leadership traits, and the desire to give back to their communities by helping others discover their dreams.

Dynamic Edge and Utilities Instrumentation Service will provide refurbished laptops to the deserving winners of the Lucid Hope Scholarship program. The laptops aren’t just tools, but rather, the keys to unlock student potential and open doors to endless opportunities in the digital world.

“People in the U.S. often take for granted the widespread availability and affordability of laptops and Internet access,” says Dynamic Edge COO Mike Robins. “The team at Lucid Hope afforded us not only that reminder, but also an opportunity to support an underserved group of students.”

The Lucid Hope Foundation views hands on-education as a change agent for individuals, families, communities, and the nation. By building the Lucid Hope family, the scholarship foundation will:

  • Provide financial support for undergraduate education
  • Introduce various industry thought leaders within the USA, fostering an ongoing mentorship
  • Provide access to various resources necessary to build lifelong leadership traits and skills
  • Connect students to a collaborative network of scholars to navigate real life challenges

Lucid Hope Scholarships for Bangladesh was founded by Alpona Khan and Rasel Zaman. The couple was born in Bangladesh and left the country at an early age. Currently, they live in southeast Michigan. While raising a young son, Alpona and Rasel came to understand that having a strong family and community support is vital to flourish one’s full potential. They always had a vision of giving back to help those who are less fortunate and can overcome their struggles with a helping hand. Among many issues in Bangladesh, the lack of funding for college student’s education stood out the most to them. Alpona and Rasel chose to help the students of Bangladesh who have potential for a bright future but are financially unfortunate. They believe that having a good education is very important and it can shape an individual’s future.
