Who we are
We are a dedicated group of high school students participating in a Business Incubator class at Westlake High School. Through this amazing opportunity, we wanted to express our passion and interest in expanding the younger generation’s knowledge on political events. In this current election cycle the percentage of Americans reporting they follow political news closely is 32%. That leaves many large government decisions in the hands of the remaining 68%, many of whom are uninterested and uninvolved. That’s where PoliticAid comes in. Our platform solves this issue by offering an unbiased, visually compelling program that provides political education, credible news sources, and interactive polling. It is targeted towards schools, universities, and non-partisan platforms. We hope to limit the division in our current political atmosphere and also help policymakers address the issues that matter most. Our goal is to make an interactive platform that entertains a younger audience but also gives them a chance to be taken seriously and voice their opinions on a variety of current issues.
