Handfuls of Big News!We have been working full steam building hands for kids and also working hard to partner with organizations to raise money for scholarships! With that being said, we have a some huge announcements! My son, Cam, and I have been pumping out several hands and have even jumped into making and building the 3D printed arms now! We are huge fans of the work the Team Unlimited guys are doing way out in the UK! Thanks to their generosity in sharing these files open source (meaning anyone can download and print the files), we have access to this arm design to now be able to give children who are missing a full hand AND wrist the confidence boosting helper arm ... free of charge! Cam and I are now working on our second, third, and fourth arms for kids in and outside of the USA. Plus, we have many hands still going out as well! You can see more of our work on the Different Heroes Facebook Page:) ALSO... We have teamed up with Purses with a Purpose, Microsoft Corporation, and Nubability! If you haven't heard of these great businesses, please take some time to visit their websites. They are doing great things for our communities! We aren't done yet... Purses with a purpose is holding a fundraising event THIS SATURDAY, OCT 7th, from 7-11AM in Charlotte NC! Please see flyer for details. Proceeds from this event are going to help fund our initiatives to continue to make and provide 3D printed assistive devices to children absolutely free charge. Checkout their Facebook page or more details and please, spread the word with friends and family if you feel inclined to help. Cameron and I will have a booth set up to meet and great, fist bump and thank you in person for coming out to show your support...We hope to see you there!
