Lee, a South Korean industrial designer, created the desk after he noticed a need, and was determined to fill it.

"I have decided to be a designer for the poor."

While traveling in India a couple of years ago, Lee observed students sitting or squatting on dirt streets, using their legs as a writing surface. Soon after his trip, he started taking a product design course, and was inspired to create a product to help children like the students he met.

That's when he began to conceptualize the Letter Desk, hoping to give students in developing nations access to something simple yet life-changing.

"I [feel] so much satisfaction to design for people who need help," says Letter Desk creator HaYoung Lee. "I have decided to be a designer for the poor and people who live in the third world in the future."

Lee hopes his Letter Desk can eventually help children, like the students he met in that one Indian village, to have better access to education.

"I would love to make this product widely available, but I need supporters with me."

But the road to making the desk widely available in developing nations isn't easy. With little financial support, Lee and his impactful design are left waiting for funding for mass production.

The designer is currently working to get financial support from sponsors, partners, or nonprofits to allow his innovation to take off.

"I would love to make this product widely available, but I need supporters with me," Lee says.

Until that support comes, Lee holds the blueprint to a simple invention with massive potential.
