Team PrISUm attends many events across the state of Iowa in order to educate the public about the importance of sustainability and our goals as a team. Our top priority is to show people the future of transportation and the importance of renewable energy sources such as solar power.

In order to change the future of transportation, it is necessary to educate the leaders of tomorrow on automotive innovations. Through our outreach efforts, PrISUm reaches over a quarter of a million individuals annually. Invite us to your next event and be the spark that creates the next Thomas Edison or Elon Musk.

SunRun is an annual Team PrISUm event in which we drive the solar car around the state of Iowa promoting STEM education, showing off the car, and getting communities excited about sustainable transportation. In 2017, we conducted a 3,000 mile, 3-week trip through the each of the 99 counties in Iowa and reached over 600,000 people. We stopped at schools, community events, visited our partners, and even participated in a parade! The overarching purpose of SunRun is to do outreach with local communities. This event is special not only because of its scale, but also because of the level of interaction the public can engage in with both the solar car and the students that devoted their time and efforts to help design, build, and race it. Please stay tuned on our social media for the announcement of our next SunRun.
