Social Entrepreneur Alice Chun is the epitome of “Gutsy” - learn how she became part of Hilary & Chelsea Clinton’s new Apple TV+ show

Episode #12

Alice Chun is a social entrepreneur, professor, humanitarian, and award-winning inventor featured in Hilary and Chelsea Clinton’s new Apple TV+ series, “Gutsy.” In 2015, Chun invented Solar Puffs, the world’s only self-inflatable, portable origami solar light, in order to bring light to places that have none. We may take light for granted but it’s a matter of life or death in third-world areas and for people in countries reeling from natural disasters and war like Haiti, Puerto Rico, and Ukraine.
