We’ve hit a huge milestone — with the help of our volunteers, our community, and our supporters, we’ve built 10,000 assistive devices for people with disabilities.
On October 12th, Neil Squire, the Canadian leader in assistive technology, and their Makers Making Change initiative, officially marked 10,000 assistive devices made for persons with disabilities at a build event hosted in partnership with Full Circle™, an Electronic Arts video game development studio.
To kick off #HackingForTheHolidays 2023, we partnered with HSBC Bank Canada to host a build event on September 18th. HSBC Bank Canada employees from Toronto and Vancouver volunteered their time to adapt 35 toys that will be donated to local hospitals and kids with disabilities.
We are proud to announce the release of four OpenAT joystick devices that were developed as part of the Government of Canada’s Assistive Technology Program.
