My Project

We are a solution-based technology club called The Innovators, given problems by our school community and asked to design and 3D print real-life solutions. Our Innovators club is branching out and starting a new club while keeping with our philosophy of helping others....We are going to start to crochet items for people/children in need (baby blankets for the NICU, beanies for unhoused etc). We would like to use these crochet kit items to improve the overall environment of the people in need.

The demand for our Innovators to create 3D-printed solutions is astounding!

Giving our Innovators a new challenge helps them believe in what they are accomplishing and that we are here to support their overall goal, which is to help others.

Our innovators put in countless hours to design, print, and test their prototypes before they deliver their designs to the intended person. The time can add up to 20-30 hours per design. To keep our Innovators engaged with our community, these kits to start making their new creations will help them get started.
