An App for Experiential Learning
Customer Story: STAMP
This is how kids use to check in
STAMP Overview
The STAMP program was designed to engage more Philadelphian teenagers, from ages 14 to 19, in the different cultural and educational experiences that the city has to offer, as well as opening up more opportunities to learn outside of the classroom. The STAMP app serves as a free pass for teenagers to visit the various educational attractions of Philadelphia.
Transition
On April 6th, The Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance and MilkCrate launched the STAMP by MilkCrate app. This app allows teens in Philadelphia to access local museums for free. The STAMP by MilkCrate app makes acquiring new art and cultural learning experiences for teens possible by giving them easy access to a list and map of participating museums in the Philadelphia area. The STAMP app by MilkCrate is effectively reaching teenagers and helping in opening up more opportunities for them to access a hands on, out of classroom learning experience.
Challenge
STAMP participants had relied on a paper card mailed to their house by the staff - but over 30% reported losing their card. Now the staff can save valuable time skipping that tedious task because the students can always access the app. The museum staff have also been saved a headache, since now they don’t have to track each student in their own system, the app tracks visitors for them. With the help of MilkCrate, the STAMP Pass is now digital which makes it easier for students to access these learning opportunities.
