Hands of Impact - Social Project ESSEC Mannheim EMBA '26

Give a Hand. Change a Life.

We’re not just classmates — we’re a team of changemakers from the ESSEC & Mannheim Executive MBA program, coming together for a project that’s deeply personal and profoundly impactful.

In partnership with The Hand Project, we’re building mechanical prosthetic hands for people around the world who have lost theirs — often through war, illness, or tragic accidents. These hands aren’t just tools. They’re symbols of freedom, dignity, and second chances.

But we’re not stopping there.

We’re taking this mission into local schools in the Rhein-Neckar region and around Paris, where we’ll guide students through the powerful experience of assembling these prosthetics themselves. Along the way, they’ll:

• Discover the magic of STEM through real-world impact

• Connect with global stories of resilience and humanity

• Learn that even small hands can make a big difference

This project is about more than giving — it’s about inspiring, educating, and connecting across borders and generations.

We need your help to make it happen.

Your donation will help us:

• Buy prosthetic kits

• Run hands-on workshops

• Deliver these life-changing devices to those who need them most

Join us. Be the reason someone smiles, someone learns, someone gets their life back.

Every hand we build tells a story. Help us write the next one.
