Ashley’s Story
Ashley’s team didn’t quite have enough time in 48 hours to make her bionic legs, so they made her a 3D printed stabilized cup holder instead, and along the way they restored her faith in humanity.
We use technology, knowledge and passion to empower Canadians with disabilities.

We have another Stateside Buildathon coming up, and this one’s close to home — we’ll be in the Pacific Northwest just outside of Seattle in beautiful Tacoma, Washington on Monday, July 31st.
Makers Making Change and FabLab Tacoma have partnered to host a LipSync Buildathon in Tacoma, Washington on Monday, July 31 from 9 am – 3 pm.
