Entry Description

Sprout is an integrated bag and app designed to help People with Intellectual Disabilities shop independently. The bag transforms from a hands-free shopping basket into a sling bag for carrying groceries, making the process simple and convenient. The companion app guides users step by step—from finding items to making payments—while teaching budgeting & financial literacy through interactive games. In partnership with SpedGrow, Sprout empowers PWIDs to develop confidence, independence, & essential life skills, allowing caregivers to send grocery lists & manage spending remotely.
