ADAPT Project: Toy Accessibility in Philly

$405 raised of

We are the ADAPT Project, a student-run organization dedicated to improving accessibility in Philadelphia. We 3D-print and donate assistive technology such as zipper pulls, universal cuffs, and even buttons (to make toys more accessible) to patients with disabilities. This assistive technology is often extremely expensive, even $80+, which is why we are determined to provide these items for free.
So far, we have donated almost 400 items to a local hospital, and we are working on donations to other hospitals, schools, and any in-need patients. We have also hosted educational sessions and are working on teaching students interested in STEM how to use 3D-printing to solve real-world problems.
We would appreciate any donations to ensure we can continue giving these items for no cost to people who need them. Costs will cover electrical parts, filament, toys, and other materials.
