Show Notes

The power of technology to change lives is sort of astonishing, as is this episode. College freshman Jonathan T. and his brother created an organization called Helping Hands which harnesses the power of young computer programmers all over the country to create 3-D printed prosthetic hands. I learned so much during this episode and was so impressed with Jonathan's enthusiasm and heart.

I hope you'll check out Helping Hands on IG @helpinghands.mb and if you'd like to get involved or learn more visit www.helpinghandsmg.org.

Jonathan also mentions an organization in Haiti called Food For the Poor and his brother is certified to make prosthetic hands through E-nable.
