Keanu Henry had a program worth sharing with the world — but no website to show for it. As the Founder of Stellar Minds, a program teaching mindfulness practices and academic techniques to indigenous youth, Keanu needed a site that could hold its own at entrepreneur competitions and professional conferences, all without draining his fellowship's limited budget.
About Stellar Minds
Stellar Minds is a purpose-driven education program founded by Keanu Henry. The program focuses on giving indigenous youth access to mindfulness practices and academic skill-building techniques — tools many young people haven't had the opportunity to encounter due to personal or systemic difficulties. Keanu's vision extends beyond the classroom: he plans to expand the program with a scholarship tied to demonstrated understanding and real-life application of these practices, creating a direct incentive for young people to engage deeply with the work.
The program is affiliated with a fellowship and connected to communities like We Are Healers, positioning Stellar Minds as both a grassroots effort and a professionally recognized initiative.
The Challenge
Keanu needed a website that could do real work — not just look good. The site had to handle several specific functions:
- A contact form for people to reach out
- The ability to host videos showcasing the program
- Clickable buttons linking to feedback surveys
- A clear link for people interested in supporting the project financially
On top of the functional requirements, the site needed to be something Keanu could be proud to display — at conferences, entrepreneur competitions, and to We Are Healers members. The stakes were high: a weak or generic site would undercut the credibility of a serious, community-focused program.
Limited Coding Experience, Limited Budget
Keanu came to the project with limited coding experience. Hiring a professional web developer was an option, but it would have been costly and a drain on the fellowship's budget. He needed a path to a polished, functional website that didn't require writing code or writing a big check.
How Keanu Built Stellar Minds with Solo
Keanu turned to Solo AI Website Creator, and the results came faster than expected. Here's how he put it together:
-
Choosing a Design That Fit the Mission
Solo's color themes and design options made it straightforward for Keanu to land on a visual identity that felt right for Stellar Minds — professional, welcoming, and aligned with the program's values. No designer required.
-
Adding the Features That Mattered
Solo's ease of use meant Keanu could implement the specific functions he needed — contact form, video hosting, survey buttons, and a financial support link — without getting stuck on technical details. The platform handled the background complexity so he could focus on the content.
-
A Working Version in Under 2 Hours
From start to a working website: under 2 hours. That's not a trimmed estimate — that's the timeline Keanu reported. For a founder managing a fellowship program, community relationships, and scholarship planning, that kind of speed is the difference between a project that moves forward and one that stalls.
The Results
Keanu now has a website he's proud to show at conferences, entrepreneur competitions, and to the We Are Healers community. Every functional requirement he set out to achieve — contact form, video hosting, survey links, financial support link — made it into the final site. And he did it all without hiring a developer, keeping the fellowship's budget intact.
"Solo really helped me create a beautiful website that I could proudly show at conferences, entrepreneur competitions, and to the We Are Healers members. Solo's ease of use, color themes, and ability to accurately create the website I was looking for was what brought me to Solo."

Beyond the finished product, Solo changed the process itself. As Keanu put it, the platform made "the design and background applications much easier" — a significant shift for someone coming in with limited coding experience. The result wasn't just a website; it was the ability to complete a fellowship project and present confidently in professional settings.
