SUMMARY:Makers Making Change Presents: Q&A on Device Design
DESCRIPTION:Join Makers Making Change for this exciting Q&A with Hedgehog Technologies\, who recently completed an exciting device design for users – an IoT silent door alarm! We will also be joined by members of our NYC Chapter who will discuss the need for this device within their community. \nIf you’ve ever wondered what goes into the design process\, where to find or how to start working on a MMC design challenge or if you are interested in the silent door alarm or variations of it – this is a great chance to learn from and ask questions to those involved in the project! \nEvery month\, Makers Making Change will present exciting topics related to our program\, so keep checking to see what is coming next! Makers Making Change is a project that connects people who could benefit from assistive devices with volunteer makers. Makers Making Change (MMC) is an innovative community-based initiative that connects makers to people with disabilities to create affordable open source assistive technologies. Makers Making Change utilizes emerging technology such as Arduino microcontrollers\, 3D printing and laser cutting. The project integrates the culture and communities that surround the open source movement\, the maker movement and the crowdsourcing movement.

SUMMARY:Global Day of Giving: Giving Tuesday
DESCRIPTION:GivingTuesday is a global movement for giving and volunteering\, taking place each year after Black Friday. The “Opening day of the giving season\,” it’s a time when charities\, companies and individuals join together and rally for favourite causes. In the same way that retailers take part in Black Friday\, the giving community comes together for GivingTuesday. \nGivingTuesday harnesses the potential of social media and the generosity of people around the world to bring about real change in their communities; it provides a platform for them to encourage the donation of time\, resources and talents to address local challenges. It also brings together the collective power of a unique blend of partners – nonprofits\, civic organizations\, businesses and corporations\, as well as families and individuals – to encourage and amplify small acts of kindness. Across Canada and around the world\, GivingTuesday unites communities by sharing our capacity to care for and empower one another. \n“We have two days that are good for the economy. Now we have a day that is good for the community too.”
