One Stone, a student-led leadership organization, celebrated its new headquarters in the River Myrtle – Old Boise urban renewal district on Nov. 17 with student-led tours, a ribbon-cutting and an open house.

One Stone team members used design thinking, a human-centered innovation and problem solving method developed at Stanford University’s d.school, to create the new headquarters.

Launched in 2008 with 20 teens in the home of One Stone founders Joel and Teresa Poppen, the new space brings all the organization’s programs together under one roof, and in space that accommodates its 230+ members.
