Uncharted Play was founded in May of 2011 as a new kind of social enterprise grounded in play and the happiness of life, that would show the world how play could be a tangible tool for inspiring social invention. ? The dream began in 2008 when Jessica O. Matthews worked on a class project to invent the SOCCKET at Harvard University, an energy-harnessing soccer ball. Quickly she realized that the world of play was truly uncharted territory when it came to tangibly addressing real issues facing society. Though the future was uncertain, she knew that an enterprise grounded in sustainable, realistic solutions for happiness had real value. ? Discovering an undeniable passion for social entrepreneurship, Matthews furthered her mission after graduating from college; setting up an office in New York City and building an enthusiastic team to develop the dream of creating an organization that would prove that doing good and having fun need not be mutually exclusive.
