- Grace is an immigrant from Korea. She has always lived far away from her family members, and it was always her dream to live with all of them together one day in her life. Thus, the drawing, containing a village with her happy family, represents a hot-air balloon shaped car that is carrying her dream around everywhere: to live happily in a cohesive society with her family./??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

- My dream car is light as a butterfly and helps all girls around the world to get education even in places where girls are not allowed to go to school. From Pakistan, in Swat Valley, to school places destroyed in Syria and to the 100 girls in Nigeria, Robo-Fly flies the world to provide mobile schooling. It collects and recycles electronic equipment such as laptops, cell phones and computers and fixes devices then later on, hands over to girls who have no access to technology. It also collects books from book-donation centers, sorts and groups them by subject and air drops them to girls. When is out of gas, Robo-Fly transforms continuously into another butterfly using its lifecycle. It uses senses just like a living thing: sound signals to announce that it is around, sight for flashlights, hearing for capturing girls’ voices asking for help and smell for orientation as books do smell deliciously. It can spread its wings for children to learn to read from images projected on the sky and uses sound to read stories aloud. It works on energy that regenerates from girls’ grace. Overall, I am convinced I have created a car that can be of great help for girls in need of learning./?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
- The Ecofix car runs on fruits and vegetable compost. Poor people get coins when they put the daily fruits and vegetable compost in the fuel tank. This car separates seeds from the compost, dries them and throws them on the grass so that new plants can grow. This car also preserves rain water to water the plants from the tailpipe. This car is helping the environment and people and also spreading peace to all. /???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
