Naomi Beswick, a speech language pathologist in Edmonton, Alberta, was looking for a switch adapted toy for a child that she works with. A first-time requestor, perhaps it was fitting that two first-time volunteers answered the call.

We are so excited to have McGill University joining Makers Making Change in building devices!
