Are you a high school or university student and want to make a difference in the lives of people with disabilities? Our Clubs That Care initiative is back, and we’re looking for youth leaders (ages 15-30) in Canada to engage their communities in building assistive devices for Canadians with disabilities.
Thanks to your support of our Hacking for the Holidays campaign, we were able to deliver adapted toys to places like The Centre for Child Development.
When Didi was in grade 11, she volunteered at a build event hosted by Neil Squire’s Makers Making Change program inspiring her path into engineering. Five years later, she joined our team as a co-op student.
High school students at MakerSpace NYC’s industrial design camp used their skills for a good cause, designing a standing desk for students with ADHD and other disabilities that have a hard time sitting for the whole day.
Do you design open-source assistive technology? Are you looking to get started? Our Makers Making Change Research and Development team have been compiling a series of Open AT Resources to help designers in every step of the process.
